FIG. 35 is a front perspective view thereof showing our design in a non-illuminated state.

The broken lines in FIGS. 1 - 35 depicting various optional components of a totem controller are included for illustrating environmental structure and form no part of the claimed design. The long-short dashed lines in FIGS. 1 - 28 indicate curvature and form no part of the claimed design.

The appearance of the illumination region sequentially transitions between the images shown for the sequence in FIGS. 1 - 28 . The process or period in which one image transitions to another in the sequence forms no part of the claimed design.

The difference in color in the sequence indicates a contrast in the colored illumination of the sequence and does not depict any particular texture or material.

Applicant recognizes inventive aspects of the totem controller having an illumination region, and portions thereof, with the illumination region illuminated in any of the single state illumination patterns shown in individual images, or in any combination of some or all of the single state illumination patterns shown, or in the entireties of the sequence of illumination shown herein.
