Abstract

The input device for control signals for controlling the movement of an object represented on a display device is fitted with a housing (24) and three control signal generating devices (38, 40, 42) to generate first control signals. The input device also comprises three actuating organs (32, 34, 36) disposed orthogonally in relation to each other, wherein each organ is mounted in such a way that it may be displaced linearly along a spatial axis (x, y, z) on or in the housing (24) and protrudes outwards above the housing (24) in two opposite areas of said housing (24). Each actuating organ (32, 34, 36) interacts with one of the control signal generating devices (38, 40, 42), wherein the control signal generating devices (38, 40, 42) generate the first control signals depending on the displacement position of the actuating organs (32, 34, 35). Spatial orientation of the housing (24) is recognized by a position recognition sensor (46) and representation on the display is adjusted in correspondence with the position and location of the housing (24).
