摘要： A system and method for a hybrid multimode input device includes a multimode input device capable of a two-dimensional (2D) mode of operation and a three-dimensional (3D) mode of operation. The device includes a two-dimensional (2D) position sensor, a three-dimensional (3D) position sensor, and a processor. The processor is configured to enter a 3D input mode when the processor detects that the input device is in a first orientation, and enter a 2D input mode when the processor detects that the input device is in a second orientation. The 2D input mode is configured to provide 2D position data to a connected computer system, and wherein the 3D input mode is configured to provide 3D position data to the connected computer system.
