ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling a three dimensional cursor's position on a display with a two dimensional control device by generating a translation signal to the display when the control device was moved in such a way as to indicate that the user intended a translation of the cursor and generating an elevation signal to the display when the control device was moved in such a way as to indicate that the user intended an elevation of the cursor. Analysis of the single movement alone, however, being only the first step in truly interpreting the user's intentions, the present invention also includes steps for preventing certain types of control device movements from being interpreted incorrectly.
