Someone decided to build a six-axis mouse for use in 3D modeling. From a math perspective, it’s a three axis mouse, x,y,z or horizontal, vertical, and depth, respectively. The writer of the article counts the x axis twice, once for “left” and again for “right”, the y axis twice (up and down) and the z axis twice (near and far).

Anyway, after using three old computer mice, here is his final work.

He mentions that the math was “mind-bending”, but I think the entire project was mind-bending, thus the title.

However, I do think he is right that it’s a good model for the next PS4/XBOX3/NINTENDO YU? platform.
