Computer control device analogous to a mouse or joystick, but for translation of 3-D movements into virtual 3-D movements on a computer screen, that is intuitive and easy to use

摘要

Control device for 3-D spatial computer applications in which a marker (2) is moved in a 3-D coordinate space (1), with the movement translated into a corresponding movement in 3-D virtual space. The control device comprises an arrangement of linear rails (3), while the control device for movement of the grip is a potentiometer system.
