SpacePilot PRO is designed to meet the challenges of today’s CAD-intensive business. The need for more advanced products, a compressed time to market, and the focus on more efficient development cycles all place increased performance demands on the CAD professional. SpacePilot PRO is engineered to meet these challenges and excel in today’s most demanding professional 3D software environments.
Features:
LCD Workflow Assistant: The full-color LCD delivers at-a-glance visibility of Microsoft® Outlook® e-mail, tasks, calendar entries and function key commands, ensuring quick access to key information without interrupting your workflow.
Advanced MCAD Navigation: SpacePilot PRO features the most advanced six-degree-of-freedom (6DofF) sensor technology. Gently push, pull, twist or tilt the compact controller cap to smoothly pan, zoom and rotate 3D models. The second generation QuickView Navigation Keys provide fingertip access to 32 standard views, giving an unparalleled level of control that encourages model exploration leading to improved error detection and design quality.
Powerful Application Control: Five new fully customizable, dual-function Intelligent Function Keys provide instant access to 10 frequently used commands. SpacePilot PRO recognizes the active application and work environment and automatically assigns the appropriate commands. The color LCD provides visual feedback on function key assignment ensuring an optimized workflow.
Superior Comfort: The soft coated, sculpted wrist rest positions the hand perfectly while the compact controller cap guides your fingers into the ideal position for precise and effort. The most frequently used function keys are conveniently positioned, ensuring a comfortable working experience, even for the longest design sessions.
Navigation features
3Dconnexion 6DoF Technology
The key to SpacePilot PRO's smooth and intuitive 3D navigation is the patented six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) sensor. With four times the precision of previous sensors it can detect input as small as 4 micrometers (that's about 1/25 of a human hair!).
3Dconnexion Cap
Simply push, pull, twist or tilt the 3Dconnexion Cap to pan, zoom and rotate. It's like reaching into the screen and holding the model in your hand. This unparalleled level of control encourages model exploration leading to improvements in error detection and design quality.

QuickView Navigation Keys
The second generation QuickView Navigation Keys extend the power of the controller cap by providing one-touch access to 32 standard views enabling users to instantly view models from any angle for improved error detection, design review and design presentation.
Standard Views
Three buttons enable you to select each side of your model (six views)
Two Isometric Views
ISO1 shows the model with the top/front/right sides facing front. ISO2 shows the model with the top/back/left sides facing front.
90-Degree Rotation Key
A short press rotates the view by 90 degrees clockwise. A long press rotates the view by 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
Navigation Setting Keys
During the course of developing 3D models, designers may want to restrict navigation to certain planes or axis. For example, when creating 2D sketches of 3D profiles, it is useful to be able to pan and zoom but not rotate the view. The SpacePilot PRO navigation setting keys allow users to personalize how the controller cap works by restricting navigation to certain axis. The status of each navigation settings key is displayed in the LCD Function Key Applet.
Dominant key
Dominant mode filters out all motion except for data coming from the axis that is being actuated the most.
Pan and zoom key
Turn off translation motion along the three primary axes so the model can only be rotated.
Rotation key
By turning rotation off, users can focus on smooth, simultaneous pan-and-zoom navigation only. This is ideal for work modes such as sketching or for quickly inspecting standard views of your model.
Speed Key
Adjusting the SpacePilot PRO navigation speed, changes the amount of force or torque that needs to be applied to the controller to move a model or environment. Lower the speed for detailed, close-up work and increase the speed for design reviews and presentations.
