3Dconnexion: SpacePilot PRO, SpacePilot, SpaceExplorer, SpaceNavigator for Notebooks, SpaceNavigator

As the worldwide leader in navigation input devices, 3Dconnexion serves the distinct needs of a diverse set of industries and creative professionals including those in Product Design (CAD/CAM/CAE), Animation, Modeling and Digital Content Creation. Today, more than 350,000 design professionals using 2D or 3D software revolutionize the way they work with a navigation input device from 3Dconnexion.

Over 120 popular software applications are supported. Because of these relationships, 3Dconnexion devices are able to unlock hidden power within these applications; power and functionality that cannot be accessed with a mouse alone.

Navigate Your 3D World™

3Dconnexion has redefined the way CAD professionals work with 3D models and applications, introducing an easier, more balanced, two-handed work style. Unlike regular 2D mice confined to motion on one flat plane, 3Dconnexion 3D mice offer 6 degrees of freedom. The key to all 3Dconnexion mice is the controller cap. It makes otherwise complex movement simple, and streamlines the entire design process. Pressure sensing technology allows the cap to become a virtual extension of the engineer. Simply push, pull, twist or tilt the cap a fraction of inch to simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate the model or camera view with complete precision. Now, instead of manipulating your model by clicking interface commands, you’re directly connected with the content. And instead of a linear navigate/command process, you have a blended navigate/command flow. The results?

o More streamlined, more intuitive approach to design
o Reduced interaction with the interface, allowing greater focus on the design
o Reduced physical fatigue and discomfort
o Increased efficiency – on average, over 20%

3Dconnexion’s professional series of products include the SpaceExplorer™, SpacePilot™ and the new SpacePilot™ PRO. Designed for professional 3D applications, all three 3D mice feature the controller cap, programmable function keys, and dedicated function keys for keyboard modifiers and quick views that streamline the SolidWorks design process from Sketch to Drawing.

What’s NEW

Designed to excel in today’s most demanding 3D environments, the new SpacePilot PRO features advanced MCAD navigation including fingertip access to 32 standard views; next generation function keys for powerful application control; a full-color LCD "Workflow Assistant" display for at-a-glance visibility of Microsoft® Outlook® email, tasks, calendar, and function key commands; and a new, ultra-comfortable design.
