styluses
Touchscreen writing tools
Styluses is the plural of stylus, a pointed instrument for writing, drawing, or interacting with surfaces.
Ancient styluses inscribed wax tablets; modern ones tap touchscreens or sign credit card terminals.
In audio, a stylus is the needle that reads vinyl records.
The Latin plural styli also appears, though styluses is more common in everyday use.
