It woks by sensing motion same as all wands, and pressure sensors detect when it is up against a surface, converting it from 3D into 2D mode, to be used like an ordinary mouse. Then, it uses a laser sensor to track its progress against the surface, the same as an optical mouse, When held in the hand, precision motion sensors guarantee accurate responses to natural hand movements. A simple wrist flick serves as a command button for example, making it possible to control presentations with body language, or use unconscious interest to affect your viewing habits in immersive data.

Wireless, the mouse broadcasts a radio signal which can be detected up to 100 feet (30 metres) away, making it ideal for large space VR interfaces. Using a frequency of 2.4 Ghz, the radio method completely eliminates LoS issues, and operates at a frequency separate to wireless connectivity protocols, so it will not interfere.

One significant downside is the mouse is solely Windows compatible, rendering its operation moot for larger VR setups.
