3Dconnexion designs powerful, ergonomic hardware and smart, easy-to-use software that combine seamlessly to make working in the world’s most popular CAD applications fast, comfortable and fun. From our SpaceMouse 3D mice to the CadMouse, 3Dconnexion products provide a superior way for CAD professionals to interact with and experience the digital world.

The 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse product line delivers natural, precise positioning of digital models or views that just isn’t possible using any other input device. With a SpaceMouse you have the extraordinary ability to simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate models while the regular mouse stays in its regular place. It’s a comfortable and efficient two-handed workflow that feels good and enables you to achieve more in less time.

We pioneered this two-handed workflow, and then we perfected it with the release of the CadMouse. The CadMouse is the first mouse used in your regular mouse hand that is built specifically for CAD professionals. With a unique dedicated middle mouse button, Smart Scroll wheel and useful set of CAD-specific tools including the incredibly convenient QuickZoom, the CadMouse makes working in (and out) of design and CAD applications more comfortable, efficient and fun.

When you pair a 3Dconnexion CadMouse with a SpaceMouse, the results are extraordinary. The SpaceMouse smoothly positions your object or view, while the CadMouse selects and creates with ease.  It’s a natural and comfortable work style that can’t be matched.
