the virtual vector calculating unit 321 of the control module 32 can integrate the detection data of the plurality of vector detecting modules 33 and the relative positions of the plurality of vector detecting modules 33 and the virtual sensing module 34 to calculate the motion vector data corresponding to the virtual sensing module 34.

2. Obtaining virtual motion vector data:

the setting positions of the vector detection modules 33 can define a virtual area, and the user 22 can set the virtual sensor position of the virtual sensor module 34 in the virtual area, so that a virtual detection element appears in the area of the main body 31 where no detection element is set, and the corresponding motion vector data is calculated based on the virtual sensor module 34.

3. Automatically adjusting the virtual detection position:

the contact comparison analyzing unit 324 of the control module 32 stores a plurality of contact comparison data and corresponding virtual sensor positions, when the user 22 uses the mouse device 3, the control module 32 analyzes the detection data of the virtual sensing module 34, retrieves the most suitable contact comparison data from the contact comparison analyzing unit 324, and stores the corresponding virtual sensor positions in the virtual sensor position setting unit 322, so that the control module 32 can automatically adjust the virtual sensor positions in different holding postures according to the virtual sensor positions stored in the virtual sensor position setting unit 322.

In summary, the virtual sensor position setting unit 322 of the control module 32 can set a virtual sensing module 34 in the area where no detection component is set on the main body 31, and then obtain the corresponding and virtual motion vector data as the input data of the computer 21 based on the virtual sensing module 34, in addition, the contact comparison analysis unit 324 stores a plurality of contact comparison data, so that the control module 32 can analyze the holding posture of the hand 223 of the user 22, and correspondingly obtain a virtual sensor position as the setting position of the virtual sensing module 34, so that the mouse device 3 can achieve the effect of changing the virtual sensing module 34 with different holding postures, thereby achieving the purpose of the present invention.

The above-mentioned embodiments are merely preferred embodiments for fully illustrating the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. The equivalent substitutions or changes made by the person skilled in the art on the basis of the present invention are all within the protection scope of the present invention. The protection scope of the invention is subject to the claims.
