Venolia<br/>Shinpei Ishikawa | issued = 17 May 1994 | assignee = [[Apple|Apple Computer, Inc.]] | reference = {{cite patent|number=US5313230}} }} '''Three degree of freedom graphic object controller''' is a two motion detector unbounded and independent manipulable control device that converts the motion of an object to output signals on the display of a computer, and controls the translational motion to a third translational axis. Its patent number 5313230 was granted on 1994. <ref>{{ cite patent | country = US | number = 5313230 | status = patent | title = Three degree of freedom graphic object controller | pubdate = | gdate = 17 May 1994 | fdate = 24 July 1992 | pridate = | inventor = Daniel S.

Venolia (Later ''Gina Danielle'' Venolia)<!-- Confirmed in email from former co-worker of hers to [[User:Findecanor]] --> * Inventor: Shinpei Ishikawa * Patent number: 5313230 * Filing date: 24 July 1992 * Issue date: 17 May 1994 * Assigned to [[Apple|Apple Computer, Inc.]] ==Context== This patent shows one of the first examples of a [[scroll wheel]] on a mouse. It had been invented independently by multiple people, but it is probable that Venolia and Ishikawa had been first to do so. A earlier incarnation had been shown by Venolia at the ACM SIGCHI conference in 1989.<ref name="buxtontimeline">BillBuxton.comβ[https://www.billbuxton.com/inputTimeline.html Some Milestones in Computer Input Devices: An Informal Timeline]. Revision dated 2018-11-23, retrieved 2018-12-04</ref> Apple did however not sell a mouse with scrolling function until the [[Apple A1152]] "Mighty Mouse" in 2005, which instead had a miniature
