The mouse that can take any form

Lite-On has created a mouse whose shape can be changed by the user wishes




Moldable Mouse is created by its authors to be adapted by the user in the most appropriate and comfortable for it.
Mouse is made from a kind of easy and non-toxic plasticine , covered with nylon and a material made of polyurethane, whose texture is similar to that of silk, but is more flexible.
The buttons and scroll-pad is touch-sensitive and can be attach anywhere on the surface of the mouse; they contain a RFID chip that communicates with the electronic mouse. It is situated on a pad that is flexible and where there are components and optical (mouse is a laser) and its batteries.
So far it is unclear if this mouse, which took a prize for design, will exceed the prototype stage to become commercial, but is a unique idea.
