发明名称 Input device for providing position information to information handling systems
摘要 An input device is disclosed, one embodiment of which provides position information to an information handling system (IHS). The position information includes both location information and spatial orientation information of the input device in real space. The input device includes a location sensor which determines the absolute location of the input device in x, y and z coordinates. The input device also includes a spatial orientation sensor that determines the spatial orientation of the input device in terms of yaw, pitch and roll. The input device further includes a processor that processes the location information and the spatial orientation information of the input device in real space to determine an image view from the perspective of the input device in virtual space. Movement of the input device in real space by a user causes a corresponding movement of an image view from the perspective of the input device in virtual space. The input device itself displays the image view, or alternatively, an IHS to which the input device couples displays the image view.
