We consider to use two SpaceMouse Compact or Space Mouse Wireless in one application. With one device we would like to control the left motorized stage and with the other device the right motorized stage.
We have the following questions:
1. Is it possible to connect two devices at a time?
2. How can the software identfy from which device the an Input comes?

Re: Parallel use of two devices in one application
The SDK API allows you to open each attached device separately.
You get a separate handle.
Then you get input on that handle, so you know which device sent it.
Our SDK is meant to be used by 3D graphics applications. There is filtering implemented that may not be desired. If you want to use it in an industrial control application, you might want to use one of our industrial controllers or a different API. We can provide guidance.
Still, you can get started with our SDK API. Optimization changes you make later will be minor.
