Intuitively Navigate and Explore 3D Models To take a close look at something in the real world, you pick it up and examine it from every angle. Its so natural you dont even think about it. Now working in 3D is just this intuitive. With our 3D motion controller, you can intuitively zoom, pan and rotate models, exploring and navigating your designs as naturally as if they were objects in the real world. Control up to six degrees of freedom with pinpoint precision and simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate 3D objects in every direction.
This Innovative 3D Controller
Frees You To: |
Improved Spaceball PowerSensor shape allows for easy and dynamic adjustment of hand position for more precise control of 3D objects while working from a more comfortable semi-prone position. | |
3 "rapid action" buttons located for thumb access | |
Revolutionary new adjustable wrist pad which can be converted in seconds for either right or left hand use, to ensure full ergonomic optimization | |
9 finger-operated buttons offer accessibility with minimum muscle movement | |
Fully certified by all major CAD/CAM, CAE, DCC and 3D visualization applications | |
12 easy-to-reach function buttons designed to eliminate reach over the sensing mechanism, offering access for up to 22 customized functions with one button reserved as a shift key | |
SoftTouch wrist pad cushions your wrist for greater support and comfort | |
Improved SpaceWare software provides for 22 customized programmable software functions | |
Specially coated ball surface provides a better grip, improving the ability to control models and cameras in 3D space | |
Dialbox emulation and LPFK functionality | |
Spherical PowerSensor promotes a less constrained grip and provides total flexibility for finger and thumb placement on the ball surface. | |
Improved 4th generation contactless and wearless FLX Power Sensor improves spring technology by 50x | |
Improved ridge design around the sphere's equator guides fingers into optimum control positio | |
Improved 10-bit electronics reduces noise, producing a driftless technology | |
Reduced ball size increases comfort while providing greater control for precise movements | |
Improved ergonomic design reduces learning curve | |
