What works on touch screens besides fingers?
Aluminum. In addition to copper, aluminum is another material that works with capacitive touchscreens. While aluminum isn’t as conductive as copper, it’s still able to conduct electricity — just like your bare fingers. As a result, it’s supported by capacitive touchscreens.
What is a capacitive stylus?
Capacitive stylus A capacitive touch screen uses an electrostatic field that registers contact when the field is distorted by a conductor. A capacitive stylus functions exactly like your finger by making screen contact via electrostatic field disruption.

How does a capacitive touch sensor work?
Basically, a capacitive touch sensor works by detecting the change in capacitance in a “capacitor” that consists of a sensor plate and “ground”, where this ground could be your ground plane, or a large nearby conductive plate, or water, or something.
