“THE WAND” – A 3-DIMENSIONAL GENERAL-PURPOSE MOUSE

Nischal Madiraju

Abstract: In this generation of such advanced computational devices which have evolved so much in the past decade mouse, the one device that we daily use hasn’t changed much and is still stuck in 2-D axis even though its purpose has been upgraded for a 3-D environment. This is a huge limitation for many designers, developers and for the people who often travel for their work because for the designers and the developers (game developers) the environment that they use 3-D In this paper, I want to introduce a 3-Dimensional mouse technology which can produce and use coordinates in all the 3- Dimensions X, Y & Z with the help of an Accelerometer, 2-Bluetooth module and 2-Micro Controllers

Keywords: 3-Dimensional mouse, Accelerometer, Bluetooth module, Micro Controller
