If technology is evolving with each passing minute then why should the gadgets and accessories remain square and orthodox? Catching up the technological evolution, Canadian firm Deanmark Ltd has come up with a revolutionary computer mouse that invariably becomes an integral part of your body. Hailed as the “AirMouse,” the radical mouse can be worn on your hand like a glove, allowing easy as well as brisk web navigation. Integrating a right and left click mouse buttons in the palm, the AirMouse comes equipped with optical tracking laser that lasts for a week on single charge.
In comparison to the conventional mice, the AirMouse reduces the excessive force in a huge way, as it aligns itself with the user’s hand and wrist ligaments to keep the hand in a neutral position. Moreover, the user can type on the keyboard with ease without removing the glove. The wearable mouse will be available for a reasonable $129 by the end of the year.

I would hardly call this a “radical” design. There have actually been HUNDREDS, if not thousands of fully working prototypes of “glove mice”, some relatively simply, others extremely over the top, like the “pinch glove” systems for use in VR setups.
There’s actually a whole variety of “do it yourself” style tutorials that have popped up here recently, not just for making glove systems that can control mouse movement, but for ones that can be used for keyboard controls as well, some forms specifically designed around online gaming keyboard controls and the like.
Most of the forms are pretty simple to build too, often it just involves hot gluing touch sensors to a mitten and then with some simple electronics you can setup your custom glove interface.
What would be if I like to type on keyboard whit the glove on?
Wow this is so cool. I sit at a mouse all day and the clicking make my wrists sore after a while. This might be the answer to my problems.
Hey cool weblog, just pondering what spam software you use for responses mainly because i get lots on my web site. Can you please let me know here, so that not only I but other people can put it on our sites too.
