    IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0 Microsoft IntelliMouse with IntelliEye optical sensor mouse. IntelliMouse is a series of computer mice from Microsoft.The IntelliMouse series is credited with a number of innovations; [1] Microsoft was among the first mouse vendors to introduce a scroll wheel, [2] an optical mouse, and dedicated auxiliary buttons on the side of the mouse.

  3. Robotic sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotic_sensing

    The third and final tactile sensor type is a low spatial resolution sensor which has similar tactile acuity as the skin on one's back or arm. [28] These sensors can be placed meaningfully throughout the surface of a prosthetic or a robot to give it the ability to sense touch in similar, if not better, ways than the human counterpart.

    An example of coupling might be that Sensor 3 will only look for backscatter radiation after the speed-of-light delay from Source 3a to the target and back to the position of Sensor 3b. Such waiting for a signal at a certain time, with radar, would be an example of electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) , so that a signal jamming aircraft ...

  5. Pointing device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointing_device

    A trackball is a pointing device consisting of a ball housed in a socket containing sensors to detect rotation of the ball about two axis, similar to an upside-down mouse: as the user rolls the ball with a thumb, fingers, or palm the pointer on the screen will also move. Tracker balls are commonly used on CAD workstations for ease of use, where ...

  6. Tangible user interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangible_user_interface

    A simple example of tangible UI is the computer mouse: Dragging the mouse over a flat surface moves a pointer on the screen accordingly. There is a very clear relationship about the behaviors shown by a system with the movements of a mouse. Other examples include: Marble Answering Machine by Durrell Bishop (1992). [8]

  7. Spatial ability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_ability

    For example, spatial perception is defined as the ability to perceive spatial relationships with respect to the orientation of one's body despite distracting information. [4] Mental rotation on the other hand is the mental ability to manipulate and rotate 2D or 3D objects in space quickly and accurately. [ 3 ]

  8. Data logger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_logger

    Data logger Cube storing technical and sensor data. A data logger (also datalogger or data recorder) is an electronic device that records data over time or about location either with a built-in instrument or sensor or via external instruments and sensors. Increasingly, but not entirely, they are based on a digital processor (or computer), and ...

  9. Soft robotics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_robotics

    Sensors are one of the most important component of robots. Without surprise, soft robots ideally use soft sensors. Soft sensors can usually measure deformation, thus inferring about the robot's position or stiffness. Here are a few examples of soft sensors: Soft stretch sensors; Soft bending sensors; Soft pressure sensors; Soft force sensors
