Package org.j3d.device.input.spaceball Description

Implementations of InputDevices suitable for the Spaceball device, mouse, keyboard and mouse-keyboard combinations.

Behavior and utility classes to convert the device input into various transformations are included.

The Spaceball device uses the serial port for Input/Output communication. These drivers therefore require the JavaCOMM API in order to compile.

The code has been tested with the Spaceball4000. Code is included for Spaceball3000 and 2300 models, but is not yet tested.
