Waving With Your Mouse

Posted on 23 March 2007 by


Oh admit it – you’ve always wanted to operate your computer’s mouse without having to set it on anything, to wave and point that mouse while it tracked your movements and wrist-flicks on the computer’s monitor.

What?! You didn’t want that?

Well, maybe it’s just because you didn’t know it was possible.

And my point of course, is that it is…

Joe, of bookofjoe fame, has sent a link to his entry on the USB Wireless Space Mouse EZ, a wireless mouse which can be waved around similarly to a Wii controller.

From the Rare Mono Shop’s blurb about the Space Mouse:

“USB Wireless Space Mouse EZ” is an revolutionary mouse that can be use in the air ! It is quite simple to use. Reverse the mouse and hold it. Position your finger on the red light part and move the finger. Then you will see the cursor moves on the screen as you move your finger. Since the red light part functions as a button for clicking, any operation of mouse including single/double click is possible. You are completely free to take any position off the computer to use it ! Excellent tool for presentation etc. ! Use with our “Easy Desk” for more freedom !

Needless to say, it can also be used as a normal optical mouse, on your desk or mouse pad. There is no tangling cable thanks to wireless system. No installation of driver is necessary !

New compact dongle type USB transceiver makes it simple and easy to connect to PC/Mac, in smaller setting space. Also battery can be charged even while in use.

I kind of like the idea of conducting symphonies from the comfort of my desk chair – and watching the results of my flicking wrist appear on the computer monitor.

What to you all think: Novelty item? Or something that you might enjoy using?

I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford

    I’ve had a Gyration mouse for a few years now; does pretty much the same thing, using internal magic gyroscopes. http://www.gyration.com
