A DIY hardware project for building a low-cost 3D navigation device (spacemouse) using magnets, primarily designed for Autodesk Fusion 360. It includes firmware in C++ and build instructions, supporting orbit, pan, home view, and fit-to-view controls.

Use cases

  • build a cheap spacemouse for Fusion 360
  • DIY 3D mouse for CAD orbit and pan
  • navigate Fusion360 without buying a 3Dconnexion device
  • adapt a DIY navigation device to other CAD software
  • make a magnet-based 3D controller for modeling

When to choose

  • you want a low-cost alternative to commercial spacemice for Fusion 360
  • you enjoy building your own hardware and following maker instructions
  • you need orbit, pan, and view controls in CAD on a budget

When to avoid

  • you need a plug-and-play commercial-grade input device
  • you use CAD software other than Fusion 360 without willingness to adapt the firmware
  • you require a permissively licensed project for commercial use (CC BY-NC-SA)
