Polhemus and Ascension Technologies both manufacture 6 dof position
sensors.  They also package the same devices as 3D mice.  Addresses in
the comp.robotics FQA.

In Vancouver, RSI manufactures a 6 DOF joystick.  We have one of those
and it performs well.  Phone number is (604) 656-0101.

You can also contact Vincent Hayward <harward@mcrcim.mcgill.ca>.  He
may have something to offer.
