Why use a SpaceNavigator 3D mouse?

Dana Fiorucci Senior Design Engineer Why use a SpaceNavigator 3D mouse? The key advantage of a SpaceNavigator over a mouse and keyboard is the ease of performing intricate adjustments to camera views and models without repeatedly stopping to change direction, zoom, or rotate.

How does the SpaceNavigator work?

With a SpaceNavigator you can do all three at once while simultaneously using the mouse to access commands and tools. Heavy for precision. A heavy (479 grams) brushed stainless steel base keeps the SpaceNavigator stationary and provides a stable platform for the spring-mounted pressure sensitive controller cap.

How do I use the 3Dconnexion device?

The 3Dconnexion logo is cermarked to the bottom of the device, the serial number should be there as well. There are two buttons on the base of the device. It took me a minute to realize exactly how these work; they click horizontally, as if squeezing inward. When you first use the device, your instinct is to press them straight down.
