Popis: Based on kinesiology research demonstrating that translation and rotation are inseparable actions in the physical world, we present Mushaca, a 3-degrees-of-freedom mouse that senses rotation in addition to traditional planar position. We present an optical realization of the Mushaca device based on two optical sensors and then evaluate the device through a series of controlled experiments. Our results show that rotation is indeed a useful input modality for a pointing device, and also give some insight into how users perceive the changing coordinate system of the rotating mouse and adapt to this change through kinesthetic learning.
