摘要

A mouse-like computer input device for inputting information to a computer system by a user, which includes a mobile unit which includes a transmitter. The mobile unit is detachably connected to one of the user's fingers, preferably via a ring-like structure which fits over or around the user's an index finger. When detached from the user's finger, the mobile unit can be attached to a holder which may resemble a joystick or a gun handle which can be grasped by the user's hand. A stationary receiving system receives signals transmitted by the transmitter. A suitable processor is used for processing the received signals to produce information usable by the computer system related to the position of the mobile unit.
