Orientation sensing device
First Claim
1. A sensing device for generating orientation data, when the device is positioned or moved relative to a surface having coded data disposed thereon, the coded data being indicative, when sensed by the sensing device, of the orientation of the sensing device, the sensing device comprising:
- a housing;
an orientation sensor located in the housing, the sensor being configured to generate the orientation data using at least some of the coded data, the orientation data being indicative of three dimensions of a rotational orientation of the sensing device relative to the surface; and
a transmitter, located in the housing, the transmitter being configured to communicate the orientation data to a computer system.

Abstract
A sensing device for generating orientation data when positioned or moved relative to a surface, the orientation data being indicative of an orientation of the sensing device relative to the surface, the surface having coded data disposed upon it, the coded data being indicative, when sensed by the sensing device, of the orientation, the sensing device including: a housing; orientation sensing means configured to generate the orientation data using at least some of the coded data; and communications means configured to communicate the orientation data to a computer system.
