JOYSTICK

Definition of: joystick

A pointing device used to move an object on screen in any direction. It employs a vertical rod mounted on a base with one or two buttons. Joysticks are used extensively in video games and in some CAD systems. They are also just one element in more elaborate game controllers (see video game controller). The term comes from the main control stick in a small airplane.
