Uses
EUROPEAN SPACEMOUSE
With the developments explained in the previous sections, DLR's development group started a transfer company, SPACE CONTROL and addressed a clear goal: To redesign the control ball idea with its unsurpassed opto electronic measuring system and optimize it thus that to reduce manufacturing costs to a fraction of its previous amount and thus allow it to approach the pricing level of high quality PC mouse at least long-term.
SPACE MOUSE
Use of handshake signals (RTSSCTS) are recommended for the safe operation of the spacemouse.Without these handshake signals loss of data may occur.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF SPACEMOUSE
SPACEMOUSE FEATURES
Ease of use of manipulating objects in 3D applications.
Calibration free sensor technology for high precision and unique reliability.
Nine programmable buttons to customize users preference for motion control
Fingertip operation for maximum precision and performance.
Settings to adjust sensitivity and motion control to the users preference.
Small form factor frees up the desk space.
Double productivity of object manipulation in 3D applications.
Natural hand position (resting on table) eliminates fatigue.
SPACEMOUSE BENEFITS
As the user positions the 3D objects with the Magellan device the necessity of going back and forth to the menu is eliminated.
Drawing times is reduced by 20%- 30% increasing overall productivity.
With the Space Mouse improved design comprehension is possible and earlier detection of design errors contributing faster time to market and cost savings in the design process.
CONCLUSION
The graphics simulation and manipulation of 3D volume objects and virtual worlds and their combination e.g. with real information as contained in TV images (multi-media) is not only meaningful for space technology, but will strongly change the whole world of manufacturing and construction technology, including other areas like urban development, chemistry, biology, and entertainment.
