3DConnexion has some new competition thanks to a little product called the “Axsotic”. It’s a 3d mouse that mounts a sphere on a few flexible mounts, allowing you to manipulate it just as you would in real space.
Do everything at the same time
In a normal 3D-Workflow, you need to serialize navigation steps to move, zoom and rotate, and then finally you can work.
With the 3D-Spheric-Mouse you can do all of the steps at the same time.
This is possible, because the 3D-Spheric-Mouse gives unlike any other 3D-Controller direct control of your 3D-Navigation, without any failure input.
Working with the 3D-Spheric-Mouse feels as natural as drawing with a pen tablet.
Looks pretty impressive, although you can’t actually buy it yet.
