The handle unit 101 includes a housing 104 and a stylus storage area 105 located on the housing 104. The stylus storage area 105 stores the detachable stylus unit 102. The stylus storage area 105 includes a first circuit interface area 106. The unit 102 includes a stylus body 1021, a light ring unit 108 electrically connected to the stylus body 1021, and a second circuit interface area 107 located on the surface of the stylus shell 117 of the stylus body 1021; the light ring unit 108 is electrically connected to the control unit 103, and the first circuit interface area 106 and the second circuit interface area 107 are in contact with each other and are both connected to the control unit 103.

The handle unit 101 and the stylus unit 102 can both enable the user to operate in the virtual world. The handle unit 101 is usually a three-degree-of-freedom (3DOF) handle. 3DOF includes movement in the X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction, and the Z-axis direction, and can realize movement in three directions: up and down, left and right, and front and back. The stylus unit 102 is usually a six-degree-of-freedom (6DOF) handle. The 6DOF (6DOF) stylus can realize three degrees of freedom related to the rotation angle, namely, rotation around the X axis, Y axis and Z axis, in addition to the movement in the three directions of the X axis, Y axis and Z axis, so that the stylus unit 102 can fully detect the spatial and angle information, so that the stylus unit 102 can meet the user's more delicate operations such as drawing and writing in the virtual world, increase the input mode of the VR handle 100, and enhance the user's experience. The handle unit 101 and the stylus unit 102 are both electrically connected to the control unit 103, so that the user's operations on the handle unit 101 and the stylus unit 102 can obtain signal feedback from the external real world. The control unit 103 may be a single chip microcomputer, which is a microcomputer that integrates a central processing unit, memory, timer, counter, and various input and output interfaces on a single integrated circuit chip, and has the functions of processing instructions, executing operations, controlling time, and processing data. The handle unit 101 includes a housing 104 and a stylus receiving area 105 located on the housing 104. The stylus receiving area 105 receives a detachable stylus unit 102. The housing 104 can be designed according to actual design requirements.

When the stylus unit 102 is placed in the stylus storage area 105, the light ring unit 108 is in contact with the handle unit 101. For example, as shown in Figures 1 to 7, the operation area 112 of the handle unit 101 is rectangular. At this time, the light ring unit 108 corresponding to the handle unit 101 can be matched and set into a rectangular ring to match the handle unit 101, so as to facilitate the detachable setting of the light ring unit 108 and the handle unit 101. When the stylus unit 102 is not placed in the stylus accommodating area 105, the light ring unit 108 and the stylus unit 102 are both away from the stylus accommodating area 105, and the light ring unit 108 is electrically connected to the control unit 103. At this time, the control unit 103 is located inside the stylus housing 117, so that the stylus unit 102 can interact with the external VR host 130 according to the light emitted by the light ring unit 108, so that the external VR host 130 can track the stylus unit 102 in real time, thereby meeting the algorithm requirements inside the external VR host 130, and receiving and presenting the user's operation in real time to ensure the user's usage experience. When the stylus unit 102 is placed in the stylus accommodating area 105, the handle unit 101 and the stylus unit 102 act as a whole, and the light ring unit 108 can also enable the handle unit 101 to interact with the external VR host 130 based on the emitted light, so that the external VR host 130 can track the VR handle 100 as a whole in real time, and then receive and present the user's operation in real time, ensuring the user's experience. The partial structure of the VR handle 100 is reused to ensure that both the handle unit 101 and the stylus unit 102 can be used normally, so that the VR handle 100 can realize the user operation information detection on 6DOF and reduce the manufacturing cost of the VR handle 100.
