Enter our prize draw for your chance to win one of eight SpaceMouse Pro controllers, specially built for 3D artists
We’ve teamed up with 3Dconnexion, specialist creator of 3D mice for design and visualisation specialists, to give away eight SpaceMouse Pro controllers – worth £249 each!
3Dconnexion’s latest 3D mouse combines its patented six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) sensor for intuitive and precise 3D navigation with an advanced ergonomic design and an innovative on-screen display, enabling you to immerse yourself in the creative process while enjoying a natural way to position and navigate 3D content.
3D mice enhance creativity and improve the way users interact with 3D content. By manipulating the controller cap, you can pan, zoom and rotate your 3D model or camera position while simultaneously using a standard mouse or tablet to select, create and edit. Just like in the real world, both hands are used in a more natural work style.
The on-screen display shows which commands are assigned to the four Intelligent Function Keys
In addition to its superior 3D navigation experience, the SpaceMouse Pro offers professional features, including QuickView Keys that provide one-touch access to 12 view combinations (top, right, front and 90-degree rotation) and four fully customisable Intelligent Function Keys for fingertip access to frequently used application commands. An on-screen display (Windows only) gives visual feedback on function key assignment.
The SpaceMouse Pro also gives you valuable [Ctrl], [Shift], [Alt] and [Esc] keyboard modifiers next to the controller cap so you don’t have to waste time reaching for them on the keyboard. Last but by no means least, the advanced ergonomic design ensures a balanced and comfortable workflow, by making all 15 tactile buttons easy and comfortable to press while your hand is positioned perfectly by the full-size, soft-coated hand rest.
The SpaceMouse Pro is supported by Windows 7, Vista and XP; Mac OS X 10.4.6 or later; Sun Solaris 8 (Sparc) and Sun Solaris 10 (x86/x64); and Linux (Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS 4 and Suse 9.3 or later).
