1 © 2002—3Dconnexion 3D Controller Tutorial Pro/ENGINEER Introduction to 3D Controllers and their use

2 © 2002—3Dconnexion  The 3D Controller translates your sense of touch into dynamic movement of graphic objects in 3D space.  Allows INTUITIVE, true 3D-motion control in up to 6 degrees of freedom simultaneously.  Pan, Zoom and Rotate in one hand.  Software driver for enhanced / added functionality What is a 3D Motion Controller?

3 © 2002—3Dconnexion Two Handed Power 50 movements by Mouse 50 movements by Mouse Movements by Mouse Fewer mouse movements Simultaneous navigation by 3D Controller Increased Productivity 15-30% Faster Designs Reduced Discomfort 50% Less Mouse Movement

4 © 2002—3Dconnexion Less Time. Less Discomfort. 10 - 30% Less Time 25 - 50% Less Mouse Movement Equals Less Discomfort

5 © 2002—3Dconnexion The Two Handed Approach - Normal, Natural and Fast Drawing Cutting POSITIONING HAND ACTION HAND

6 © 2002—3Dconnexion  Press down on the ball/cap: object goes down -Y  Pull up: object goes up +Y  Push right: object goes right +X  Push left: object goes left -X  Push away from you: object zooms down -Z  Pull towards you: objects zooms up +Z It’s like holding your part in your hand!

7 © 2002—3Dconnexion 3D Motion Controller Features  6 degrees of freedom  Programmable buttons allow shortcuts to frequent functions  100+ applications supported - CAD/CAM/CAE applications - Industrial design applications - Office suites, email, browsers  Variations in size, shape, feel, application support, # of buttons

8 © 2002—3Dconnexion Designed to avoid fatigue of hand Intuitive and precise man-machine interface Slight pressure onto cap sufficient to generate small and precise movements Fingertip operation to support higher sensitivity and bandwidth Comfort & Functionality

9 © 2002—3Dconnexion 3DxWare; Button Mapping Panel  Pre defined button mappings for Pro/ENGINEER  Use Drag and Drop to redefine

10 © 2002—3Dconnexion 3DxWare; Sensitivity & Filters Panel  Easily adjust your sensitivity settings or any filter for maximum comfort

11 © 2002—3Dconnexion  Better knowledge of models  Better error detection  Better design quality  Removes up to 50% of mouse clicks / large mouse movements off dominant hand/arm (reduce risk of RSS)  More productive 3D Controller Benefits

12 © 2002—3Dconnexion 2D Applications  Support for a variety of 2D graphics and productivity applications! - Adobe  Photoshop  Acrobat  InDesign - Microsoft  Office: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook  Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer, Project - Plus many others available with macro capabilities!
