Pointer - ILStec - Interaction at the Speed of Light

Go to content
Pointer
Point to the screen and your personal cursor (or the Windows cursor)
follows your pointer movements.
The light beam shown in this picture is only for illustration.
In reality the pointer sends out ultra short light flashes (100µsec).
The flashes are infrared light so the beam is invisible.
The pointers have been assigned an internal worldwide unique serial number
in our factory in China.
This number is encoded and sent out using the light transmitters.
This is why our camera and all our other receivers
can identify each pointer individually.
If you enable this access in the PointerNet, then everybody using
our cameras, or our other receivers will immediately get your gamer tag, gamer avatar or your
uploaded selfie or credit card or PayPal data (if previously entered).
You can even send messages including text, pictures or speech/music
using our light beams.

And it can receive individual vibration commands addressed to the serial number,
e.g. short for "wrong" and "long" for "right".

We can even add a speaker so that the pointers can play sound/music
under application control. There are pretty much commands implemented.
The pointers have a left and a right mouse button.
Behind one of the (front) holes sits the red light beam sender
and behind the other hole is the infrared flasher.
There is a rechargeable Li-Ion battery in the pointers
allowing them to be used for 10-12 hours as pointing device
or for 1000+ messages or clicks per day.
The pointers can be charged using a standard USB Type C cable
and your mobile phone power adaptor.
Although the first ones (green and red below) have been designed
by a professional agency they are the dumbest of all.

They only had one single button on one side, which had to be pressed with the thumb.

Obviously all people in that agency were right handed, so they did not realize that these
pointers are a nuisance to left handed users! Good job, you guys!
Immediately after these crazy pointers had been manufactured we, as a group of freelancers, were hired and tasked by that company (VLS Virtual Laser Systems)
to create new ones and manufacture 20.000pcs in China. The blue one was not good, as it still only had one mouse button, however that was because we were forced to use an
pre-existing case (that above agency sucked too much money).
Unfortunately we weren‘t much better!
This pointer with the yellow buttons (already 2 mouse buttons) was our first own design after VLS went into bankruptcy.

Yet all had the same mistake: They had their buttons located either at the sides or on the top:

The optimal design:

The 2 buttons must be pulled towards yourself
therefore the light beam does not go up, down, left or right when clicking.
In 2017 we had the new design idea and in 2019 we had the perfect design
already verified/tested in China with a lot of adults and children.

And when we have done our job with your help
The Pointer goes into the Smart Phone
(It is less than 1USD and a small modification of the BLE receiver)
