Hoverstop Mouse

Juniper Foo | Aug 02, 2006

Looks like a mouse. Works like one. So what gives? Apparently, it's designed to give your mouse (oh, and your overworked wrists) a break. Built into this ergonomically correct rodent is a Hoverstop Sym 8-3 sensor, which can tell if you have your hand on the mouse and if you're clicking, scrolling, etc. Stop for 10 secs, and the mouse vibrates, alerting you to remove your hand and rest. In total, that works out to 25 breaks in a work hour. On the other hand, reaching out for a Kit Kat bar every 10 seconds might prove just as effective, and far more rewarding.
