A proportional force input apparatus for an electronic device includes a mechanism operable by a user of the electronic device, such as a stylus inserted into a spring-loaded socket of the device. The mechanism provides a tactile feedback to the user proportional to a force applied by the user. A variable strength sensor detects the force applied by the user to the mechanism and converts this to an electrical signal proportional to the force applied by the user. A processor operates to input the electric signal from the variable strength sensor and provide force information to an application running on the electronic device. Optionally, a second sensor can detect rotation of the stylus. As a result, a stylus can be used to provide vector information to an application such as a game.

A compact circular waveguide system can connect circular waveguides through a bend while avoiding excessive interaction between the orthogonal modes of the circular waveguides. A compact bend system with circular waveguide input and output can be achieved by providing short quarter wave transformers. The quarter wave transformers can be positioned at the transitions between the circular waveguides and a single-mode quasi-rectangular waveguide segment. Within the single-mode quasi-rectangular waveguide segment, a bend can be formed without concern for mixing of the orthogonal modes of the circular guided wave. The undesired mode of propagation can be substantially reduced or eliminated within the quarter wave transformers with a resistive mode suppressor. The compact system can be machined out of a single block of material from the outside flange faces.
