ABSTRACT:
A miniaturized finger worn X-Y graphic interface device. A finger palette (20), a stylus ring (10) and an electronic module (32) exhibit benefits of both an X-Y degitizing tablet and a mouse without their inherent difficulties. A unique location and method facilitate use in an absolute or relative mode. When used in conjunction with a conventional keyboard, the computer-human interface becomes faster, more natural, efficient and intuitive.
