Abstract

A pointing device for a computer system includes: a first movement sensor for detecting movements of the device (1) along a first axis (X) and a second axis (Y); a second movement sensor, for detecting movements of the device (1) along a third axis (Z) not coplanar with the first and second axes (X, Y); and a processing unit (6) associated to the movement sensors for producing a plurality of movement signals (AX, AY, AZ, VX, VY, VZ, PX, PY, PZ) indicating the movement of the device (1) along the first, second, and third axes (X, Y, Z). The processing unit (6) includes a control stage (15), for controlling the production of the movement signals (AX, AY, AZ, VX, VY, VZ, PX, PY, PZ) on the basis of a response (SZ, AZ) of the second movement sensor (5b).
