The Arcball or Trackball is an elegant and intuitive input method to rotate and manipulate a three-dimensional scene with the mouse. The idea behind was proposed by Ken Shoemake [Shoemake] and is quite easy to understand and to implement which led to the fact that today it is actually the primary mechanism that people use to rotate objects in 3D computer environments.
