3Dconnexion's  (San Jose, CA) line of 3D mice is now supported by SolidWorks2008, continuing 3Dconnexion's ongoing support and certification of the leading3D computer-aided design (CAD) software.

3Dconnexion's3D mice enable seamless control and navigation of 3D objects in SolidWorks 2008 for a streamlined mechanical design experience. The 3D mice are also compatible with eDrawings 2008, the free viewing and publishing application for sharing 2Ddrawings and 3D models, simplifying the review and annotation process with quick navigation.

3Dconnexion'sSpaceExplorer 3D mouse, a tool for SolidWorks, enables CAD designers to effortlessly navigate advanced functions, view designs, and execute commands with one-touch access using the programmable speed keys for critical functions and keyboard modifiers.

TheSpaceExplorer 3D mouse features a controller cap that can be pushed, pulled, tilted, or twisted to simultaneously pan, zoom, and rotate 3D objects and environments with greater ease and more control than can be achieved with a traditional computer mouse alone. Pressure-sensing technology and intuitive software allow designers to easily accelerate or decelerate actions by varying the amount of pressure on the cap.

SolidWorks2008 supports 3Dconnexion's product line on Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista. Visit 3Dconnexion, a Logitech Company, for more: http://www.3Dconnexion.com.
