ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes computer display pointing device for controlling a display cursor. The computer display pointing device includes a physical location pointer for pointing to physical locations. The computer display pointing device further includes a device for generating physical location signals useful for recording and correlating cursor locations corresponding to physical locations pointed by the physical location pointer. In a preferred embodiment, the physical location pointer is an arrow-shaped pointer for pointing to the physical locations. In yet another preferred embodiment, the physical location pointer is an unfolding-and-folding arrow-shaped pointer whereby the physical location pointer may be unfolded to function in a physical location pointing mode and folded to function in a regular mode for controlling only the display cursor.
