Specialized systems often require specialized tools that can sometimes rack up a hefty price tag. But if you have the ability to make something yourself, it can be well worth the effort of building the tool from scratch. Today we’re sharing an impressive Raspberry Pi Pico creation from maker and developer Salim Benbouziyane who has managed to design a space mouse from scratch to use with Fusion 360.
The idea for the project began when Benbouziyane noticed how tricky it was to remember navigation combinations for Fusion 360 when bouncing between different devices. What works for a Macbook won’t always be the same when using a keyboard and mouse with Windows. To make things easier, he created this space mouse to take with him so it would be easier to navigate Fusion 360 regardless of the platform he’s using.
