The document discusses the Space Mouse, a 3D input device developed by the German Aerospace Center. It provides an overview of the Space Mouse's history and development, how it works, its advantages over traditional computer mice, and its applications in areas like industrial robotics and 3D modeling. The Space Mouse allows for more intuitive 3D motion control and reduces drawing and design times compared to traditional 2D input methods.
3. AIM OF THE PRESENTATION To familiarize the audience what SPACE MOUSE is all about. To explain its advantage over other technology. FUTURE SCOPE of the existing technology. 04/06/11 RAHUL RAJ
7. MECHATRONICS Definition of Mechatronics? How it is useful for electronic devices? Basic Idea How does it work?
8. SPACEMOUSE Why Space Mouse is used for 3D Motion? Why it is used for Industrial Robots?
9. DLR CONTROL BALL, MAGELLAN'S PREDECESSOR What was the purpose of developing? Basic concept Basic Principle Uses
10. 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.

11. 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.
13. 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.
14. 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.
15. 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.
