Device equipped with a sensor
First Claim
1. A device (10) with a sensor for detecting data, wherein the device is guided with one hand (20, 22) over a surface (14) by a thumb and at least one other finger of an operator and in which the data detected are displayed by a display unit (38), characterized in that grasping surfaces (40, 42) for be hand (20, 22) are positioned on two approximately diametrically opposed sides of a grip (12), at least one of which sides has a sensor (26, 28, 30, 32) that detects the number of fingers (20, 22) resting against this grasping surface (40, 42), wherein at least one of the grasping surfaces has a further sensor, wherein the further sensor is activatable by the thumb of the operator, wherein the device switches between left-handed and right-handed manipulation, wherein the device (10) switches the content of the display device (28) between a left-handed and right-handed representation depending on the number of the fingers (20, 22) identified.

Abstract
The invention is based on a device (10) with a sensor, which is guided with one hand (20, 22) over a surface (14) and in which the data detected are displayed by a display unit (38). The invention proposes that grasping surfaces (40, 42) for the hand (20, 22) be positioned on two approximately diametrically opposed sides of a grip (12), at least one of which sides has a sensor (26, 28, 30, 32) that detects the number of fingers (20, 22) resting against this grasping surface (40, 42).
