The Wand is a handheld Freespace controller which uses a camera to detect the position of display devices with known contents within its field of view.

It then triangulates its position and orientation relative to those display devices. Information of the direction can then be used as a control input for a menu driven user interface.

The Wand was invented by Cefn Hoile and is protected by US patent 20050104849  granted on May 19, 2005.
