Abstract
An interactive pointing device having pointing function in space and game control is provided in the present invention. The interactive pointing device comprises an accelerometer module and a gyroscope device. The accelerometer module functions as sensing the movement of the operator and generates at least one axis of accelerating signal corresponding to the sensed movement. The gyroscope device disposed on a turning mechanism functions as sensing rotation status of the interactive pointing device about at least one axis and generate a corresponding rotating signal. The turning mechanism can be operated to adjust the axis of the gyroscope device so that the gyroscope device is capable of sensing rotation status about different axes. The at least one accelerating signal and the rotating signal are then processed for controlling cursor movement of the electrical device and interacting with multimedia gaming programs.
