New technique for investigating three dimensional (3D) mouse

A class of dynamic technique for establishing 3D mouse becomes possible by combining principals of holography with microstrip antenna technology to enter 3D data into computer. The new technique is investigated for constructing the object's hologram using rectangular and square microstrip patch antenna and antenna array to store the 3D data information about the object in 2D media by means of electromagnetic waves. New method called correlation is used to reconstruct the digital form of the hologram using computer simulation. Basic confirmation for making hologram has been made experimentally to prove the simulation model. As an application, prototype system for the 3D mouse is established. Good experimental results are reached.
