Position designating system for 3-dimensional simulator

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To easily designate a 3-dimensional position and to improve the operability with a 3-dimensional simulator by giving an instruction to shift the simulator to a desired position by means of a 3-dimensional joy stick. CONSTITUTION:A 3-dimensional joy stick 12 is provided together with a cursor hit button 13. A picture display device 5 divides a display screen into four parts to display a top view 14, a front view 9, a side view 10 and a squint view 15 of a robot 8 respectively. The stick 12 moves the cursors 11 at a time and supplies the coordinate values X, Y and Z all at once with push of the button 13. Thus an operator turns the robot 8 round each axis of X, Y and Z with reference to the view 15 and can display freely the desired states.
