The Z/I Mouse, a high-precision, 3D mouse, simplifies digitizing data and capture of stereo data for input in photogrammetric processes. The Z/I Mouse provides photogrammetrists with an easy-to-use and precise manner to input data without the need for a digitizing surface since digitizing technology is incorporated throughout the entire mouse design. Using accelerated data input capabilities, users increase efficiencies in operations while eliminating repeated clutch motions – reducing some of the tedious work associated with current digitizing processes.

Highlights

• Advanced ergonomic design enables streamlined motion to speed data input and increase user productivity.
• Use of optical mouse technology provides an easy-to-use, accurate way to input data without the need for a digitizing surface.
• X, Y movement capability without having to move and clutch; users can sit still if they prefer and digitize using their thumbs for movement in the axes.
• Use of solid state switches and few mechanical parts to become dirty or malfunction means less maintenance over time.
• 15 fully programmable buttons for maximum digitizing flexibility.
• Replaces both the ImageStation® Hand-held Controller (HHC) and Immersion Mouse.

Key Features

• Use of infrared optics eliminates the need for a digitizing surface.
• X, Y, and Z movement can be controlled using force sticks.
• Thumb wheel for fine height adjustment adds an extra level of confidence in the user’s measurement in Z; user can “touch up” fine movement in Z.
• Industry-first, 3D input device to combine force stick technology with optical mouse and thumb wheel.
• USB device – simply plug and play with ImageStation products.
