The aesthetic functionality of the computer mouse hasn't changed much as of late, so the conceptual 'Bone Mouse' has been created to transform the device into a true work of art for desktops.
Designed by Lingsong Jin, the mouse has been conceptually created as a Lenovo product and has a skeletal aesthetic that puts a focus on negative space. This sees the essential components tucked within to provide the user with a decidedly minimal peripheral that is completely devoid of traditional buttons and scroll wheels. The touch-sensitive upper portion of the mouse enables users to click, scroll and even pinch to navigate the operating system for a more intuitive experience. This also works to enhance the longevity of the device by minimizing the number of moving parts.
