![]() If anything, I find it more useful to have a customizable shortcut keyboard coupled with the 3d mouse (just so I don’t have to bother with the tabs and ribbon). While modeling I find that I need to quickly position the model and select surfaces with the cursor (not to mention select functions from the ribbon menu) which is more easily done using a 3d mouse and separate pointing device simultaneously. I use CREO to work in solid models every day, and I can imagine a world where a space mouse combined with a mouse would be nice… but somehow it seems like it’d turn out to be the seventh circle of hell – and not only because I am an unrepentant track ball user. Posted in Peripherals Hacks Tagged 3D printable, 3DConnecxion, analog joystick, arduino pro micro, diy, oled, Orbion, rotary encoder, spacemouse Post navigation There are many other takes on this idea, with varying levels of complexity, like this incredible build from that sadly doesn’t make the PCBs available openly, and here’s one we covered earlier mashing the expensive 3DConnexion spacemouse into a keeb. It may not be very accurate for detailed PCB layout work, but for moving around in a 3D view, or dialling in a video edit, this could be a very useful addition to your workstation, so why not give it a try? The wiring is simple, the parts easily found and cheap, and it’s only a few printed parts! This scribe is already printing the plastics right now, if you listen carefully you might be able to make out the sound of the Lulzbot in background. Since your machine will take input from multiple sources, it doesn’t replace your mouse, it augments it. The idea is pretty straightforward you setup the firmware with the application you want to use it with, and it emits HID events to the connected PC, replacing the mouse or keyboard input. But what about open source alternatives you can build yourselves? Enter stage left, the Orbion created by This simple little build combines an analog joystick with a rotary knob, with a rear button and OLED display on the front completing the user interface. We think that something may be called ‘usability’ or maybe ease-of-use? Any which way, lots of heavy CAD users gush over their favourite mouse stand-ins, and one particularly interesting class of input devices is the Space Mouse, which is essentially patented up-to-the-hilt and available only from 3DConnexion. A camera takes a snapshot of the manufactured product and sends the image to the V2000 equipped with PCBInvestigator: Original CAD data is created by PCB-Investigator’s AOI Plug-In, so that each single part can be compared to it.When you spend a lot of time on the computer doing certain more specialised tasks (no, we’re not talking about browsing cat memes on twitter) you start to think that your basic trackpad or mouse is, let’s say, lacking a certain something. Updates and changes from the planning engineer can be displayed immediately.Īutomated Optical Inspection is used to detect defects in the production of printed circuit boards or parts of it. Information exchange, work instructions and feedback from the production can be implemented completely paperless with PCBInvestigator.Ī central server provides each stage the latest and correct data sets in real time. All necessary layout changes are sent to the customer for approval using the Embedded functionality of PCB Investigator.Ī comfortable overview of components with export functions to ASCII and CSV/Excel accelerates the purchasing process of electronic parts. ensures the manufacturability of each order by applying a Design-Rule-Check and also creates custom production panels if desired. Osram Regensburg, improves its efficiency with PCB Tools from easyLogix. ![]() The pre-settings simplify your internal and external processes and reduce potential errors to an absloute minimum. PCBspecs offers the opportunity to create PCB-Specifications centrally. For SpaceControl GmbH we implemented the interconnection between their new ergonomic 3D-Mouse "SpaceController" and the most common CAD Applications CATIA, Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks and SiemensNX by developing special Add-in solutions.
