There is provided an optical engine for a navigation device including a first light source, a second light source, a lens, a barrier structure and an image sensor. The barrier structure has a first space for containing the first light source, a second space for containing the lens and a third space for containing the second light source and the image sensor. The reflected light associated with the first light source propagates to the image sensor via the lens in the second space. The reflected light associated with the second light source propagates to the image sensor via the third space without passing through the lens in the second space.

A pen mouse is provided for controlling a movement of a cursor displayed on a monitor. The pen mouse includes a pen and an optical detection module assembled in the pen. The optical detection module includes a circuit board, two sensors, and a laser emitter, the latter two of which are assembled onto the circuit board. When the pen mouse is moved along a working surface to implement a mouse control motion, the two sensors receive a detection light emitted from the laser emitter and reflected by the working surface, so as to determine whether the mouse control motion is a pen-tilted motion or a pen-spinning motion, thereby compensating the movement of the cursor.

There is provided a bottom cover for being covered on an optical system. The bottom cover is attached in front of the optical engine. The bottom cover has a bottom surface for facing a working surface when the optical system is moving on the working surface, a first opening for emission light of the optical engine to go through and a second opening for reflected light from the working surface to go through. The bottom cover is further formed with guiding protrusions protruded out from the bottom surface toward the working surface and surrounding at least the second opening to guide soft materials on the working surface to away from the second opening.

There is provided an optical engine for a navigation device including a first light source, a second light source, a lens, a carrier member and an image sensor. The carrier member has a light holder, a lens holder, an accommodation space and a tilted wall. The first light source is arranged on the light holder of the carrier member, and reflected light associated with the first light source penetrates through the lens to propagate to the image sensor inside the accommodation space. Reflected light associated with the second light source penetrates through the tilted wall of the carrier member to propagate to the image sensor.
