This Virtual Mouse Pads Eases Wrist Pains
Janelle Savel — January 20, 2014 — Tech
The smart people who created the evoMouse took their inspiration from noticing that we have gotten used to pinching our tablets and phones to zoom in on stuff. The evoMouse connects quickly and simply to a standard USB port without having to install software. It recognizes multiple gestures similar to an Apple track pad.
You simply run your fingers on a flat surface and carry on as you would using a touch screen or laptop. Click, drag, scroll and right click just with your fingers. It functions as a multi-touch mouse, and because of its ergonomic design, there is no requirement to rest your hand on the curved back of a mouse, or to push it around, so it’s easier on the wrist -- a perfect alternative for people with repetitive motion injuries.
