SPACE MOUSE 
Introduction: What is Space Mouse? 
 Space Mouse is a professional 3D controller 
designed for manipulating objects in a 3D 
environment. 
It has different modes of operation in which it can 
also be used as a two-dimensional mouse. 
It serves as a man-machine interface , enables the 
user to intuitively zoom, pan and rotate models. 
It can control 3D cameras at different angels to 
position and view the objects. 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 4
Inside a Mouse… 
SPACE MOUSE 
The main goal of any mouse is to translate the motion of 
your hand into signals that the computer can use. Almost all 
mice today do the translation using five components:

Dept. of ISE,BRCE 5
1.BALL … 
SPACE MOUSE 
A ball inside the mouse touches the desktop and rolls 
when the mouse moves. 
Fig .2 The exposed portion of the ball touches the desktop 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 6
2.ROLLERS... 
SPACE MOUSE 
Two rollers inside the mouse touch the ball. One of the 
rollers is oriented so that it detects motion in the X direction, 
and the other is oriented 90 degrees to the first roller so it 
detects motion in the Y direction. 
Fig.3 The above image shows the two white rollers on mouse that touch 
the ball and detect X and Y motion 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 7
3.DISK… 
SPACE MOUSE 
The rollers each connect to a shaft, and the shaft spins a 
disk with holes in it. When roller rolls, its shaft and disk 
spin. The following image shows the disk: 
Fig.4 A typical optical encoding disk: This disk has 36 holes around its outer 
edge 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 8
4. SENSOR… 
SPACE MOUSE 
On either side of the disk there is an infrared LED and an 
infrared sensor. The holes in the disk break the beam of light 
coming from the LED so that the infrared sensor sees pulses of 
light. 
Fig.5 There is an infrared LED (clear) on one side of the disk and an infrared 
sensor (red) on the other 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 9
5.PROCESSING CHIP… 
SPACE MOUSE 
An on-board processor chip reads the pulses from the infrared 
sensors and turns them into binary data that the computer can 
understand. The chip sends the binary data 
to the computer through the mouse's cord. 
You can also see the two buttons 
that detect clicks (on either side 
of the wire connector).

and turns them into bytes sent to the computer

Features… 
 Ease of use of manipulating objects in 3D 
applications. 
SPACE MOUSE 
 Nine programmable buttons adjust sensitivity and 
motion control to the users preference. 
 Fingertip operation for maximum precision and 
performance. 
 Calibration free sensor technology for high precision 
and unique reliability. 
 Natural hand position (resting on table) eliminates 
fatigue.

Along with 
the views 
button is the 
addition of 
some other 
frequent 
buttons used 
to navigate 
in 3D, such 
as shift, ctrl,

Origin of Space Mouse… 
At the end of the seventies, the 
DLR (German Aerospace 
Research Establishment) institute 
for robotics and system dynamics 
started research on devices for 
the 6-dof control of robot 
grippers in Cartesian space. 
 It took until 1985 for the DLR's 
developer group to succeed in 
designing a much cheaper optical 
measuring system. 
SPACE MOUSE 
Eg: JARVIS 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 19
Cont... 
The basic principle behind its construction 
was “MECHATRONICS ENGINEERING”. 
Mechatronics is concerned with the design 
automation and operational performance of 
electromechanical systems. 
Mechatronics is a blending of Mechanical 
engineering, Electronics engineering and 
Computing.

Dept. of ISE,BRCE 20
Advantages… 
SPACE MOUSE 
Drawing times is reduced by 20%-30% increasing overall 
productivity. 
Going back and forth to the menu is eliminated. 
Natural hand position (resting on table) eliminates fatigue. 
Allows the user to move a robot system in the 
most natural way. 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 21
Cont... 
Adapted for a wide range of tasks including 
 mechanical design 
 real time video animation 
 visual simulation 
SPACE MOUSE 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 22
Disadvantages… 
SPACE MOUSE 
Too expensive (nearly $8000 earlier now reduced 
to about $3000 even though manufacturing cost is 
less than $1000). 
Dept. of ISE,BRCE 23
Applications… 
1. CAD/CAM/CAE 
1. AutoCAD 
2. Autodesk Inventor 
2. Digital Content Creation 
1. 3D visualization

CONCLUSION 
The features of a space mouse are not only 
applicable to the graphic simulation and 3D 
objects but they will strongly change the whole 
world of manufacturing and constructing 
technology. 
It is also applicable to other areas of science 
like chemistry ,biology and also entertainment. 
No other technology can beat the SPACE 
MOUSE in its simplicity and yet high precision.
