POINTING METHOD, A DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR THE SAME
First Claim
1. A method to control a pointing device with an angular rate sensor (ars), said method comprising:
- generating an ensemble of orthogonal unit vector associated signals by at least one angular rate sensor to represent angular rates in a dimensional space for each mutually orthogonal unit vector direction of said dimensional space,amplifying the at least one of said signal non-linearly for determination of cursor on a screen for (x,y) coordinates of the screen,applying a decision criterion to determine the state of the pointing device as based on said unit vector associated signals.

Abstract
The invention shows a method to control a pointing device with an angular, rate sensor, that comprises generating an ensemble of orthogonal unit vector associated signals by at least one angular rate sensor to represent angular rates in a dimensional space for each mutually orthogonal unit vector direction of said dimensional space, amplifying the at least one of said signal non-linearly for determination of cursor on a screen for (x,y) coordinates of the screen, applying a decision criterion to determine the state of the pointing device as based on said unit vector associated signals. The invention also shows a pointer utilising the method and a system comprising such a pointer.
