We propose a new method between human being and PC, and this method is the best for Multi Media Instrument and the mobile computers. We named OZUPAD to the new device. OZUPAD is coinage where Japanese "The Wizard of Oz" and "Push" is crossed and made. OZUPAD is a computer input device with the function of the joystick with the mouse.
It wraps in the palm, and it operates by the thumb and the index finger. Because the flat surface such as desk is not needed, it is possible to use in a free air space. After OZUPAD is plugged in to USB port, it is possible to use at once.



It operates by touching, and pressing the finger against a round pad of about 24 mm in the diameter that is called a KEYTOP. The finger is put on the outer part of a KEYTOP, the screen of PC is seen, and the part in the same azimuth as the direction where it wants to move the cursor is pressed lightly. Then, the cursor of PC begins to move gradually. To move the cursor of PC quickly, the pressed pressure is made strong. The pressure that the finger presses is detected in OZUPAD, and the element that changes it into an electric signal is built into. Everything from only pushed little pressure to the great pressure has been faithfully changed into an electric signal.
The practicality of input device OZUPAD with a new this element is enabled. When it begins to use OZUPAD, it feels uncomfortable first to differ from the input method to current PC. However, when we began to use the mouse first, and had begun to use the touch pad, We felt a similar sense of incompatibility. Please recall that the elbow is floating when the mouse has been used up to now. When the mouse is used long with the elbow floated, the shoulder is absorbed. This is enumerated by ”Personal Computer” using long time in one of the factors that become stiff necks. When OZUPAD is used, You can operate it in a comfortable posture. OZUPAD is not only for small PC such as UMPC, but all mouse's succession device.
Furthermore OZUPAD becomes a portable Joystick. OZUPAD is recognized to PC by changing the mode as a joystick of two axis four button type. Operation quite similar to the Joystick is good at the finger by applying pressure touching in outer of the KEYTOP. Though the Legacy Joystick was an input device that it is large, and carrying is not easy, OZUPAD can be used as a portable Joystick because of compact size and light weight. OZUPAD becomes the input device to PC following the keyboard, the mouse, the touch pad, the touch panel, and the Joystick as an input device of PC.
Moreover, OZUPAD-3WAY can be used by changing the mode as a usual optical mouse. By selecting mode switch of OZUPAD, you can use it as the Joystick, the air thumb mouse and the optical legacy mouse.
A wireless version, OZUPAD-AIR are put on the market soon. It comes to be able to use OZUPAD in a place away from the personal computer. It becomes a powerful weapon for presentation in addition to the current function.
