3D SpaceNavigator now for Second Life
With SpaceNavigator moving in the metaverse is now easier |
SpaceNavigator is a 3D mouse mostly used by designers in programs such as PhotoShop, AutoCAD, and so on. Some use it for Google Earth, just because they love the ease of movement it gives.
It is manufactured by 3Dconnexion, and the company has recently announced that SpaceNavigator is now compatible with Second Life.
For residents, this means better control and coordination with 3D objects within the 3D virtual world of Second Life: moving your avatar around will become much more fluid and seamless.
You only have to push, pull, and press on the device to move in the metaverse, instead of fooling around with mouse and keyboard commands.
And for builders within Second Life, they'll also will able to pan, zoom and rotate 3D objects to view designs from multiple angles.
