Abstract: A six degrees of freedom interactive display controller device is disclosed, comprising a hand manipulable housing unit having an opening for the passage of a mouse ball, two motion detectors for detecting the movement of the mouse ball and converting that motion to output signals controlling the tranlational movement of an object on the display of a computer, a finger operated conveyor belt or roller for controlling the translational motion of the object with respect to a third translational axis, a first finger controlled mechanism, such as a wheel and motion encoders, affixed to the housing for controlling the rotational motion (pitch) of the object with respect to a first one of the translational axes, a second finger controlled mechanism affixed to the housing for controlling the rotational motion (roll) of the object with respect to a second one of the translational axes, and a third finger controlled mechanism affixed to the housing unit for controlling the rotational motion (yaw) of the object with re
