    Introduction
    Mouse used to move cursor and activate. Mouse sends senses of hand to computer. Mouse acts as 2D controller. Space mouse acts as 3D controller.

    Concepts involved Mechatronics and Multisensory.

    How does the Space Mouse works ?

    A ball is present inside the mouse.


    Two rollers are present inside the mouse. The rollers are connected to a shaft. The shaft spins a disk.

    On either side of disk INFRARED sensor and LED are present. An on-board processor chip reads pulses from sensor. Pulses are changed to binary data.

    Mechatronics
    It is a blend of Mechanical engineering, Electronic engineering & Computing. The term mechatronics was coined by Tetsuro Mori in 1969.

    It studies on how to implement the actuators.


    There are two technologies to produce the movement: piezo-electric & electromagnetic actuators.

    Features

    Concerned with design automation.


    Includes physical integration to miniaturization of electronics. Innovative controls are applied to extract new performance levels. Provide very fast access precision positioning

    Applications

    Robotics and space exploration equipments.


    Computer peripherals. Security systems. Design of data collection, instrumentation tools. Medical devices like DNA sequencing automation . Smart domestic consumer goods

    Multisensory Concept
    High degree of electronic and processor integration. Fully modular hardware and software structures.

    The sensory systems are integrated between plastic

    hollow balls.
    This generated six degree of freedom hand

    controllers.

    Applications
    Stiff strain gauge based torque system. Miniaturized triangulation based laser range finders. Integrated inductive joint torque sensor.

    Space Mouse
    Developed by the DLR institute of robotics and mechatronics.( DLR- Deutsches Zenturum far Luft-und Raumfahrt).
    It is designed to manipulate devices in 3D environment. We can zoom, rotate , shift and pan models. Can explore and navigate designs as natural as in real

    world.
