Embodiment approach

[0033] Given the foregoing general use of a 3D positioning device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a number of different factors should be considered individually or together in the development of a 3D handheld device. For example, the housing of the device should facilitate 3D positioning of the device in one hand to hold or hold, the handle should be optimized for anthropometric dimensional data of the target user group, the device should be left- or right-handed, user-activatable control elements ( If any) should be located on the housing where it can be activated when moving the device in the air, and its weight should feel balanced when the device is held. Furthermore, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the design of the housing and / or handle of the 3D positioning device should take into account the position of the wrist, hand and arm when holding the device (eg, the aforementioned unsupported application), in favor...

Abstract

A remote control device, e.g., a 3D pointing device, has a ring-shaped or arcuate-shaped housing and at least one sensor mounted within the housing for sensing movement of said remote control device. The housing is adapted to promote a user's arm, hand and wrist to be substantially in a neutral position when the user is holding the remote control device.

Description

[0001] Related applications [0002] This application is related to and claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 696,034, filed July 1, 2005, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] The present invention relates to a 3D positioning device, and a system and method including the 3D positioning device. [0004] Technologies related to the communication of information have developed rapidly over the past few decades. Television, cellular telephones, the Internet, and optical communication technologies, to name just a few, have combined to overwhelm consumers with available information and entertainment choices. Take television, for example, cable TV services, satellite TV services, pay-per-view movies and video-on-demand have been introduced in the last 30 years. Whereas TV viewers in the 1960s typically only had access to perhaps four or five over-the-air TV channels on their television sets, today's TV...
