Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0205726A2] An image controlling method and a device for carrying out the same, for shifting a processing position indicating point displayed on a CRT, for example, of a computerized game, in response to the variation of an image displayed on the CRT, by selectively closing one or two switches among a plurality of switches (3) disposed at equal angular intervals around and at the same distance from a fixed point corresponding to the center of a control disk (4). The control disk (4) is inclined in a desired direction by applying a light pressure with the hand to a generally spherical operating ball (7) which fits the palm of the hand snug so that the switch or switches corresponding to the desired direction are closed.
