An image controller structured for allowing inputs to be converted or translated into electrical outputs, one preferred controller structured with at least a sufficient number of sensors to aid in controlling three-dimensional objects and navigating a three-dimensional viewpoint shown by a display. An active tactile feedback vibrator is mounted as a component of the controller for providing vibration to be felt by a user. Inputs to the controller include a move forward command, a move back command, a move left command, a move right command, a move up command, and a move down command. |

1. A method, comprising:
generating a three-dimensional (3-D) image according to sensing of a move forward command, the move forward command received into a host graphics image generation device from a six degree of freedom (6 DOF) manipulable controller by wireless communication; generating the 3-D image according to sensing of a move back command, the move back command received into the host graphics image generation device from the 6 DOF manipulable controller by wireless communication; generating the 3-D image according to sensing of a move left command, the move left command received into the host graphics image generation device from the 6 DOF manipulable controller by wireless communication; generating the 3-D image according to sensing of a move right command, the move right command received into the host graphics image generation device from the 6 DOF manipulable controller by wireless communication; generating the 3-D image according to sensing of a move up command, the move up command received into the host graphics image generation device from the 6 DOF manipulable controller by wireless communication; generating the 3-D image according to sensing of a move down command, the move down command received into the host graphics image generation device from the 6 DOF manipulable controller by wireless communication; generating imagery independent of movements of the controller, and according to sensing of movement of a secondary input member in a first direction, the secondary input member being part of the 6 DOF controller, the sensing of movement of the secondary input member in the first direction is independent of sensing 6 DOF movements of the controller; and generating imagery independent of movements of the controller, and according to sensing of movement of the secondary input member in a second direction, the sensing of movement of the secondary input member in the second direction is independent of sensing 6 DOF movements of the controller; and sending a signal by wireless communication from the host graphics image generation device to the 6 DOF manipulable controller to activate an active tactile feedback device. |
