A 3D input device (102) is used to generate control data (108) for electronic or electrical devices, and has: an actuation part (104), which is designed so that it can be manipulated indirectly or directly by at least one finger or hand of the user, a base plate (106), with respect to which the actuation part (104) is mounted so that it can be moved, the relative movement between the actuation part (104) and the base plate (106) being evaluated in order to generate the control data, and a display device with a touch screen (107), the touch screen (107) being integrated into the upper side of the base plate (106). Alternatively, the touch screen (107) may be integrated into the upper side of the actuation part (104). The touch screen (107) of the display device is arranged substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (118) of the actuation part (104).
