Abstract

The computer input device has an electronic circuit, where the control takes place. The input device is operated with only one hand. The control instructions follow the mode of the rotation of the input device, the mode of movement of the input device in the three-dimensional area and the switching impulses of the switches on the surface of the input device. The surface of its housing is ellipsoidal. The rotations and other movements are collected and evaluated by a gyro system with piezo sensors and associated electronic circuit and a suitable software, installed in the housing.
