<p>An apparatus for inputting three-dimensional movements and status information includes a motion mouse having at least one indicator showing the status information, which is arranged on a first surface of the motion mouse, and at least one control switch for controlling a status of the indicator, which is arranged on a second surface of the motion mouse, a camera for capturing an image of the motion mouse and an image analyzer for analyzing the image of the motion mouse by using the lens formula to recognize the three-dimensional movements and the status information of the motion mouse. The indicators may have different color, size or shape from each other to effectively represent a rotational movement of the motion mouse. The apparatus inputs three-dimensional movements of the motion mouse in a simple and cost-effective manner without transmitting/receiving any data between a computer and a pointing device through wire or wireless connection.</p> |
