An electromagnetic (EM) pose tracking system includes a computer input device having a pen or stylus form factor. In some embodiments, a base station device includes one of the transmitter (Tx) or receiver (Rx) module for the EM pose tracking system while the computer input device includes the other of the TX and receiver modules. The EM pose tracking system employs the Tx and Rx modules to collect EM pose data indicating a relative pose between the Tx and Rx modules. Based on the EM pose data, the EM pose tracking system (or a computer device working with the EM pose tracking system) identifies a pose (position, orientation, or both position and orientation) of the computer input device.

A handheld electronic device is described for controlling three-dimensional content displayed in a user interface of a computing device. The handheld electronic device may include an electromagnetic sensing system for detecting a pose of the handheld electronic device in three-dimensional space and at least one communication module to trigger transmission of the commands to manipulate three-dimensional content displayed in the computing device based on detected changes in the pose of the handheld electronic device.
