# Pen-Transforming Styluses The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap is Super Practical By Meghan Young | Published 2011-02-15 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/more-real-stylus-cap References: [core77](http://www.core77.com/blog/starting_out/don_lehmans_morereal_stylus_cap_18561.asp) & [kickstarter](http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1004382302/more-real-stylus-cap) With the growing popularity of [touchscreen technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-crayon-pro), I can easily see the MORE/REAL Stylus Cap becoming just as popular. A convenient tool, it transforms a Sharpie, Bic or Pilot Fineliner writing tools into instant styluses. Designed by Don Lehman, the MORE/REAL Stylus Cap is currently seeking $15,000 in donations on [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quill) in order to see production. Considering that users can benefit from having both an [actual writing tool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pockitrod) on hand as well as a stylus, I think that this product is super practical. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 43% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Touchscreen-stylus Hybrids:** The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap taps into the demand for multifunctional tools that serve dual purposes in our tech-driven world. - **Diy-compatible Accessories:** The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap is a gateway to a new market for accessories that enhance and complement existing everyday items. - **Ergonomic Mobile Writing Gadgets:** The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap is indicative of an emerging market for more adaptable and comfortable writing solutions for mobile devices. ### Where This Applies - **Office Supplies:** The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap creates a new line of products that intersect between writing implements and tech accessories in the office supplies market. - **Consumer Tech:** The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap opens up opportunities for existing tech companies to create complementary accessories for mobile devices, as well as for new entrants to enter the space with innovative offerings. - **Stationery:** The MORE/REAL Stylus Cap can expand the range of offerings in the stationery industry by developing products that can serve different functions while still looking like traditional writing tools. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Captivating Stylus Pens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quill.md) - [Slide-On Pen Tips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pentips.md) - [Magnetic Low-Cost Tablet Styluses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adonit-neo-pro.md) - [Multifunctional Stylus Pens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mkq.md) - [Responsive Advanced Stylus Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moto-pen.md) - [Performance-Driven Pen Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/p3n-pen.md) - [Education-Focused Styluses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logitech-pen.md) - [Colorful Tech Stylus Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-crayon-pro.md) - [Magnetic Wirelessly Charged Stylus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pro-stylus-2.md)
