SEMINARonSPACE MOUSE TECHNOLOGY

Presented by

KRISHNA RAJ S.

INTRODUCTION•Use in 3D Graphic Environment

•Six Degrees Of Freedom

•Developed by The DLR Institute of Robotics

and Mechatronics

•DLR Controller ball

•Mechatronics Engineering and The

Multisensory concept

HOW DOES COMPUTER MOUSE

WORK? • Introduced with the Apple Macintosh in 1984

• To move your cursor or activate something

• Senses the motion and sends to the computer

MECHATRONICS

•Deals with the Design automation &

Operational performance of Electro-Mechanical

s/m.s.

•Mechanical systems integrated with Sensors

•Microprocessors

•Controllers

SPACE MOUSE •Professional 3D controller

manipulating objects in a 3D environment

•Different modes of operation, can also be used as a

two-dimensional mouse

•First prototype was showed from 1982-1985

•Magellan-The European Space Mouse

•The high sales price of about $8,000 per unit

Different Types :

DLR Controller Ball

Space mouse

SPACE MOUSE SYSTEM- WORKING

Technical Specifications

FEATURES•Ease of manipulating 3D objects

•Fingertip operation

•Minimum desk space is utilized

•Natural hand position eliminates fatigue

•Programmable buttons to customize users

preference for motion control

ADVANTAGES•Drawing times is reduced by 20%-30% .

•Works without an additional power supply.

•Adapted for a wide range of tasks including

mechanical designreal time video animation visual simulation

•Allows the user to move a robot system in the most natural way.

APPLICATIONS

•Works in graphical applications

•Object manipulation in 3D applications

We believe there is no other man-

machine interface technology comparable to

Magellan in its simplicity and yet high precision.
