FIELD: electronic and computer engineering. SUBSTANCE: method for entering coordinates, graphical information, and commands in computer includes following operations: magnetic field is built up in magnetic liquid; strength of this field is such that equilibrium position of inertial body is offset along vertical axis Z relative to geometric center of closed space of acceleration sensor this center being in coincidence with point of intersection of three relatively perpendicular axes X, Y, Z; ac components of voltage are recorded by means of respective pairs of inductance coils mounted in closed space for each of mentioned axes; in addition, variations in ac components of voltages occurring when acceleration sensor is turned about X or Y axes by means of coil pairs arranged along Y or X axis, respectively, are also recorded. EFFECT: provision for entering spatial and angular coordinates. 3 cl, 1 dwg
