6D Mouse™

6D Mouse is a low-cost pointing device for use with Ascension trackers supporting a serial interface. In addition to its three prorammable buttons, it contains an embedded DC magnetic sensor for continuously tracking its positon and orientation (X, Y, Z, Yaw, Pitch, Roll) in free space. You can use it as a 3D mouse, an interactive pointer or virtual interface to real-time visualization systems.
