[Previous technique #f] [0002] In an electronic device, a conventional handwriting input method is to perform writing on a display screen using a metal or plastic stylus on a display screen having a touch function, and the display screen recognizes the handwriting The writing track of the pen, in order to achieve the purpose of handwriting input. However, it is easy to make the display screen damaged by handwriting ^ input in physical contact. [0003] Currently, an emerging optical touch method has been developed. The optical touch method uses a handwriting input light pen to project a light spot in a tablet area, and uses the handwriting input light pen to write a text or a graphic to be input, and then uses a detecting device to record the track of the light spot. Handwriting input is realized by calculating a character or a figure that coincides with the movement trajectory of the spot. Since in the optical touch mode, the detecting device only records the moving track of the light spot, so that it is not necessary to make physical contact with the display screen and gradually replace the traditional handwriting input mode. Therefore, how to design a handwriting input light pen and an optical touch system having the handwriting input light pen has become an urgent problem to be solved. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0004] A handwriting input light pen includes: a housing, an infrared light source, a converging lens, and a pen tip. The pen head includes a receiving end in the outer casing and a writing end opposite to the receiving end and located outside the outer casing. The pen head opens from the receiving end to the writing end through the 098138319 form number A0101. 18 pages 0982065723-0 201117062 The through hole of the pen. The concentrating lens is disposed at the receiving end. The infrared light source is located within the housing and is used to emit infrared light. The converging lens is configured to converge the infrared light such that the infrared light passes through the through hole and is projected to the writing end. [0005] An optical touch system comprising the above-described handwriting input light pen and an infrared camera module. The handwriting input stylus is used to project an infrared spot through the writing end. The infrared camera module is configured to capture a moving trajectory of the infrared spot. [0006] The handwriting input light pen and the optical touch system perform writing in the handwriting area by the writing end, and at the same time, the infrared light emitted by the light source is projected on the writing end by the convergence lens to form an infrared light spot, thereby realizing the light spot. Formed, and thus optical touch input is achieved. [Embodiment] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
