A new mouse design that's pretty far out there

July 25, 2008

Everyone uses a mouse, and most of you have probably heard of carpal tunnel syndrome. I never really worry about it but it does linger around the back of my mind. I even know some people who have been afflicted by it. There are different things you can do to avoid getting it, using a more ergonomic mouse in one solution, OR you can use this mouse that looks like it was designed for an alien hand.

It looks kinda of interesting and I'm totally willing to try. I know that after a few hours on photoshop my wrist can get tired. I probably should invest in a Pen tablet soon.

Hi readers!
I'm a Graphic Designer in New York City (Brooklyn!). NY is a hub for design and my posts will try to focus on, but will not be limited to, design related things happening in NY, such as museum exhibits, architecture, events, local artist interviews, galleries, etc. I'm very much into technology and art and how they intersect to make multimedia art installations. Hope you enjoy my posts!

Wauw, this really looks strange! But it was nice to see how the arm should rest in such a thing on the site you've linked to.

I should invest in a peen tool too, my arm can also get pretty tired after a long day.

Wow.. this indeed is a weird design, I wonder how you would be able to get back to a regular mouse if you need to :P

Wooh. pretty strange looking device. But surely its worth a try to check for efficiency on that thing.

you know, im looking at this as an industrial design student and all i can see is a mangle of plastic produced by some 3rd grade student. what a load of tits.

This looks really like a mouse for an alien :D Is this only a prototype, or can someone buy it already? :)

Looks interesting. I'm still trying to understand where the buttons are.

My wrist still gets tired using a tablet, even more quickly than with the mouse, Razer Copperhead. I got a Wacom Bamboo A6, black.

By the way, hello everyone! :)

Too many tubes and stuff. I would be happy to try it out anyway!
