摘要： A method for implementing a mouse algorithm using a plurality of pressure sensors is disclosed. The pressure sensors are used to freely move and rotate a mouse cursor in X, Y and Z directions, so that they can be applied as interface units for a slim device such as a mobile phone. The mouse algorithm processes a touch input. The pressure sensors are arranged in a ring shape and provide output values successively varying with magnitudes of forces applied thereto or pressures applied thereto. A moving direction of the mouse cursor is determined depending on a contact point detected through the output values and a moving distance and moving speed of the mouse cursor are determined in proportion to the magnitudes of the forces.
