SIGGRAPH 1999

MAGELLAN 3D Motion Controller is an input device used for manipulating 3D objects running on UNIX and PC platforms. The device allows the user to pan, zoom, and rotate models quickly and easily.

SIGGRAPH 1998

The MAGELLAN 3D Controller provides interactive motion control of 3D graphic objects in six degrees of freedom for mechanical design, visual simulation, and Internet applications.

SIGGRAPH 1997

Logitech is showing Magellan, 3D Controller, an advanced input device for interactive motion control of 3D graphic objects. You can experience six degrees of freedom in video animation and virtual reality in applications from Alias I Wavefront, Superscape, and AutoDesk’s 3D Studio Max. Magellan is based on the technology used to control the first robot in space and has now been adapted for a wide range of tasks including mechanical design and robotic and medical microscope control.

SIGGRAPH 1996

The Logitech booth features Magellan, the 3D Controller for CAD/CAM and video animation applications. Magellan controls movement of a 3D object in six degrees of freedom on a computer screen. Additionally, a user can move through a virtual reality environment. Magellan is compatible with the most popular CAD applications, including Pro/ENGINEER, Pro/JR, CATIA, IDEAS, and 3D Studio Max.

SIGGRAPH 1995

Logitech demonstrates Magellan, the most intuitive 3D controller for CAD/CAM applications on the market. Space-proven optical technology provides high-precision six degrees of freedom. Magellan controls manipulation of 3D objects on your computer screen through fingertip control. It’s the ergonomic solution for today’s engineers.
