US Patent 11260297 Information handling system wheel input device

A controller couples to a rear surface of a portable information handling system at a gimbal motor that supports rotation of the controller relative to the portable information handling system. A gyroscopic sensor detects rotation of the controller for application to the gimbal motor so that the information handling system maintains a viewing position relative to an end user who rotates the controller. The controller selectively couples and de-couples from the information handling system to provide inputs to the information handling system both as an integrated input device and as a separate input device through a wireless interface.
