It is a miniature controller that lets the user click on whatever he or she is looking at, since there is a small dot in the center of the user’s view functioning as a cursor. Hand motion is used for the drag and drop command, since the Clicker has motion sensors on board <ref name=”5”> Rubino, D. (2016).

The user clicks and holds with the Clicker, and then slowly moves the hand to drag objects.
