Accelerometer based Wireless 3D Air Mouse With Arduino

By Ashwini Kumar Sinha

- Advertisement -

We have seen different types of Human Interface Devices (HIDs), for example mouse and keyboard. In older versions of computer mouse, optical sensors were used to detect movement relative to a surface, thus they require smooth surface to function properly. These mice can work with only two coordinates. With advancements in technology, we are now talking about 3D user interfaces ((3DUIs). So, we must start developing a 3D HID device which have the capability to work with all coordinates.

In this project we are going to make 3D wireless HID device that will give you a whole new experience of using computers and playing online games. With this device, you will be able to control computers and smartphones by just moving your hand in air.

This device can be very helpful in making 3D UI based systems. We can use this device in 3D designing as well. For instance, you can draw any design by moving your hand in the air. Further we can develop such device for 3D holographic display and in VR that gives us a 3D UI.

Best application of this device is that it will enable differently abled people to use computers and smartphones. People who don’t have hands to operate computer or phones can now do so with the help of this device. They can wear this device on their head and operate gadgets by moving their head.

Now, let’s start our Interesting project. First, we need to gather the following components –

Components:3d Mouse

  • Arduino Pro Mini 5V 16-Mhz
  • 2 Bluetooth HC 05
  • Mpu 6050 Sensor
  • Arduino Leonardo Micro (At mega 32u)
  • Jumper wires
  • Micro USB Cable
  • 4 Push Switch

Bill of material

You also need a either FTDI Module or Arduino Uno to upload code on pro mini.

Coding

First of all, we need to install an MPU 6050 library. Open library manager of Arduino IDE and search for MPU6050, then install the library – refer (Fig. 1). After this, we will set one Bluetooth as slave and another as master – follow the Bluetooth instruction on the internet to do this.

Fig. 1 Installing Library

As we have installed the library, now we can start the coding part. In the first part of coding, we will include the library for MPU6050 and set the variables for storing values of mpu6050 sensor. After that we can set up sensor and Bluetooth in set up function – for this refer (Fig. 2). I have used Baudrate 9600 in this code.

Fig .2 Arduino Mini code setting library

 

In the second part of coding, we will send the buttons and sensors data to another Arduino over bluetooth as in pic, refer (Fig 3).

Fig. 3 Arduino Mini code getting MPU6050 data

Our Arduino mini code is ready now. So, let’s start coding for Arduino pro micro.

First, we will create variables to store values, then set up Bluetooth to read serial data of sensor – refer (Fig. 4).

Fig . 4 Arduino Micro code setting library

In the third part of our coding process, we will create a loop function and get the serial data from Bluetooth. Here in this code, I have used software serial for Bluetooth connection with baudrate of 9600.

After this, check the range value of serial data and assign its value for mouse movement as in Fig. 5.

Fig. 5 Checking the data to set coordinate values

Next, we will create if () condition to check how the mouse button functions – you can refer (Fig. 6) for this. We can also add extra Keyboard shortcuts and other functions to it as per your desire. Here in this code, I have added button shortcut for copy and paste function. You can create your own custom function according to your use cases.

As we have completed the coding part, we need to connect the components.

Connections:

Now to upload the code to Pro Mico select the board and port and and press ctrl+ U(Refer fig 9).Now upload the code to Pro mini using the board option (Refer Fig 10). Follow the instructions online to upload the code on Pro Mini. Search How to upload code on pro mini.

 

Fig 10

Congrats! The wireless HID mouse is ready for use. You can do some awesome tricks with it –  you can attach it on your hand or any toy gun and enjoy the real shooting game experience. Attach the device on the tip of a plastic knife and you can play vegetable cutting game with it.

Note:- In the code, I have mentioned A7 pin in Arduino for a keyboard button function but not used it in connection and schematics because some Arduino mini version don’t have this pin. If you have extra A7, A8 pins you can add more switch to it and set keyboard shortcut function according to your choice.

    kindly give instruction through which i can upload it succesfully

    • Hello, I hope you are doing well, I know your problem answer and that is you can’t compile and upload that code which is for “micro/Leonardo/mini/mega” to “UNO/NANO,etc..” Arduinos. Briefly you can upload this code just on Arduino which has a (for example: Atmega32U4). Go to IDE and change your board.

      ***I have some problem with that first code for mini, when I compile it I saw this error, do you have as same as my problem?

        • Hello, thank you so much for your replay. I solved my problem that night, I didn’t know if I install and copy one library two times I will had problem with it.!!! I go to my installed path (library folder) and delete one of them and everything worked well. #New_experience

  2. how you get these values?….where can i get this values? cause i use arduino joystick for the movement and button for they any funtion for the keyboard…i dont know which value should i use for my x and y joystick…and values for my button…note..i use A0 and A1 for joystick and for the button i use 1,2,3,4..,5,6..etc…please help me

    f( analogRead(A0)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(80000);
    }
    if( analogRead(A1)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(90000);
    }
    if( analogRead(A2) >= 1000){
    Serial.println(70000);
    }if( analogRead(A3)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(60000);
    }
    if( analogRead(A4)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(60500);

    • My project and code is for MPU based and with 4 buttons attached for analog button input. If you want to make this with joystick please give me the details for your joystick model and its data sheet because it may vary according to the joy stick you are using.

  3. if( analogRead(A0)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(80000);
    }
    how to know this value?
    if( analogRead(A1)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(90000);
    }
    if( analogRead(A2) >= 1000){
    Serial.println(70000);
    }if( analogRead(A3)>= 1000){
    Serial.println(60000);

    • I use arduino leonardo as main board..i use pin 4 to 13 for the button press and add A2 for one more button press..i use Dual-Axis XY Thumb stick gane controller arduino pic..+ the mpu6050..everything work..only that i want to connect it to the hc-05 bluetooth..please help me

  5. SOS!!!
    Hello again, I hope you are doing well, I stuck in your codes, I wanna edit your codes but I didn’t know how to change it. my purpose is edit your code to has two button (just right click and left click) like a real mouse, I don’t know how to change your transmitter and receiver codes.
    please guide or send me those codes. ([email protected])
    Thank you so much for your supporting.

  6. hey, i am using arduino due and arduino pro micro. code was uploaded perfectly but the main concern is bluetooth i have done the master slave in the bluetooth but the communication between two is happening.
    please help me out.
    I uploaded the code through usb.

    • Check the the Arduino Due Serial ports and pin number because Arduino Due have different serial periphera. It has serial1 on pin 19 and 18
      serial2 on 17,16 serial3 on 15,14 and serial 0 1 pin for USE so use its serial accordingly like if using serial1 then use Serial1.begin(9600).The baudrate of both bluetooth should be same

      • Thanks.But i tried to upload the code on both the Arduino’s that I am using.The code gets uploaded on the Arduino Micro but doesn’t uploads on Arduino Due it shows this type of error :

    So I don’t know what to do next help me out.And also please explain the steps of how to make it wireless.

  8. Hey.Their is no Progress Till now.I’ll tell what have i done exactly.I have used 2 Arduino Boards Arduino Due and Arduino Pro Micro.I have connected Arduino Due with MPU9250 and HC-05(slave) and Arduino Pro Micro with HC-05(master).I have connected Arduino Due on Serial 1 pin i.e (19,18) to Hc-05 (slave) Rx and Tx pin.And also made changes in the code respectively on both Arduino Due and Arduino Pro micro code(Serial1.begin(9600)).Now uploaded the code with usb cable on both the boards.And have Arduino Due an external power supply and Arduinpo Micro connected to pc through usb cable.Both the bluetooth gets connected with each other but their is no response.Opening Serial Monitor doesn’t response with anything.Hc-05 has the baud rate of 115200.So I request you to guide me 🙁

    • Hc 05 default baudrate is 9600 so both HC 05 baud rate should be 9600.
      Here you have to do some check:-
      first test your MPU Sensor and see its in serial monitor on Arduino. You can use the library example for that.
      If the sensor is ok and you are seeing the readings from Serial monitor then go for next test.
      Now connect the Bluetooth HC 05 to your DUE with Right serial port and do same with Arduino Pro Micro.
      Next in code send any string to both Bluetooth For example:
      If you are using Arduini DUE Serial1 then in loop should be like this
      void loop (){
      Serial1.println(“this is test”);
      if (Seial1.available()!=0){
      Serial.println(Serial.read());///this should be the serial of your due usb check which serial is your due usb

      }
      }

      For pro micro
      Loop should be same as above but change the name of serial you are using also in setup use same serial name to start like Serial.begin(9600); Serial1.begin(9600);
      now see in serial monitor is the communication is happening between Bluetooth modules if yes then with right serial port name.
      if no then
      inter change the RX -TX connection pins of Bluetooth of one side if still no then
      change in the other side
      if still no the change back to the first side .

      Hope this help you

    • Here in this project, There is two-part one is a transmitter and another one is the receiver, THe Bluetooth HC 05 will pair with other Bluetooth HC 05 you pc need not connect to Bluetooth HC 05

        • Here you need Two Bluetooth HC 05 and Pair them with each other. Now First part of code is for the transmitter for Arduino Nano/ micro and another part of code is for Arduino Leonardo acts as a receiver and control pc using its HID capability.

  11. hi could i help?
    I am using the arduino leornado, mpu6050 and hc 05. I would like to control the computer mouse via bluetooth using hc 05. I am using this programming but I cannot make it work. Could you tell me where I’m going wrong with this schedule? please.

  12. I see the required components but am I able to make same thing with only Arduino Nano, MPU 9091 and 1 Bluetooth HC-05 , is it enough for making this type of moue device ?
    I’m currently working on this project and its half done but I’m having mouse movement and clicking problems. Can anyone send the code for solving that problem.

  13. Hi,

    I really like the project.

    I need some clarification on this project (pardon my basic understanding)

    1. Why use arduino for this? Is it just to make it wireless and bluetooth compatible?
    2. I observed some lag in the mouse movement and gesture in the videos. Is it because of bluetooth or due to processing issue?

    Please advise
    looking forward to hear from you asap.
    thanks

    • 1. Two Arduino used for making it wireless, One Arduino transfer the hand movement data to other Arduino connected to pc and the other Arduino at pc do the HID job.
      2. Yes, Need to calibrate the mouse movement speed in pc setting and in code delay.

  14. I need your help, when I try to upload to my pro mini, it gives an error

    • Use Arduino Leonardo or Arduino Pro Micro for Hid that needs to connect with PC using USB. Also on Board select the Arduino Leonardo because Arduino Leonardo and Pro micro have the same bootloader and ATML chip. When you select the Arduino Leonardo and upload the code compiled successfully and get uploaded in Arduino Pro Micro.
      Next, use Arduino Pro Mini or Arduino Mini or Arduino nano anyone for transmitting the hand gesture data with second code that is made for the transmitter

  15. Hello there, great project!

    I am trying to make a wireless mouse Bluetooth control with only one Arduino board and MPU6050. I would like to connect and receive date through the built in Bluetooth of the PC.

    Would really appreciate if you can guide me hoe to code.

    Thanks a lot.

    • The Bluetooth HC 05 works on USART and Bluetooth serial bridge so it’s hard to use Bluetooth HC 05 directly use as Bluetooth HID input for PC Bluetooth . You need either to change Bluetooth HC 05 with another that is capable of connecting PClike HID input or you need a python code on PC that receives the serial data feom dvice then use that data to controlthe mouse poiter using input , autopy,Mouse or other python modules

  16. Love your project but have a couple of question.
    I have set up the Arduino’s exactly as per your diagrams.

    I have made the HC-05 Master / Slave at 38400 which is their default speed.

    When I run the code , nothing happens.

    My question is : Why is there no softwareSerial.h loaded in the Master of sending unit? In other projects I’ve had to install in both the sending and receiving arduinos. Do I need it?

    I’m a bit new to arduino so any help would be appreciated. I’m trying to use your project on a flight Sim.

    Thanks for your help,

    Leo
