The Surface Dial is a Bluetooth-powered puck that attaches to the Surface Studio’s display and provides useful radial menus.   Link

    Btw, if you want essentially the same thing.

    It's a neat idea, but I don't see it getting mass adoption unfortunately. If it gets Autodesk/Solidworks support I will get one.

    IDK if they both work the same way.
    The space mouse is for navigating in 3D space and the Dial is for choosing within a menu.
    They both might be customizable to do the same work (might be a lot of setup and troubleshooting), but I think they are too different to work "essentially the same."
