Unlike mice confined to motion on two flat planes, 3Dconnexion's 3D mice allow effortless movement and control within the 3D workspace. By simply moving the controller cap, CAD designers can simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate without stopping to select commands. A subtle increase or decrease in pressure accelerates or slows motion, enabling precise micro-adjustments. "With support for 3Dconnexion's line of 3D mice, we are enabling our customers to enjoy an even better design experience within TurboCAD," said Robert Mayer, co-founder and chief operating officer of IMSI/Design. "We strive to make CAD applications that reach not only mechanical and architectural designers, but also the home professional, and 3Dconnexion's line of 3D mice fall right in line with that goal." "IMSI/Design's support marks 3Dconnexion's entry into the retail CAD market, and enables TurboCAD and TurboSketch Studio users to benefit from the enhanced 3D mouse workflow employed by professional CAD designers today," said Ziva Nissan, 3Dconnexion's director of product marketing. 3Dconnexion provides advanced and affordable 3D mice that are supported by more than 120 of today's most popular 3D applications, including Autodesk® Maya®, Autodesk® 3ds Max®, Adobe® Photoshop® CS3 Extended, Cinema 4D, formZ, and all of the top-tier 3D CAD applications.
