So we can use a real mouse as a mouse
I don’t want to go back to cleaning mouse balls.
It’s easier when you remove them first.
You’re crazy, guys! I’m dying here! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have mice with frickin’ laser beams attached to their crotches!
Baseball ball mouse
I’ll get my alarm clock
I use my cat as a touch surface every day.
She will use you as a scratch surface everyday
great get me some machine washable keyboard pants.
The tapXR can let you type anywhere supposedly
How? Is it a lazer projection or do you need to wiggle your knuckles funny to spell out words
No idea haha, I know on the old model it had a sensor for each finger so it went by taps but the newer one says you can do it on any surface so no clue
Any surface??
I bet the first successful commercial use will be related to pr0n
I would love a wooden touchpad. That would feel so nice.
That’s cool. But still waiting for shape-shifting displays for accessibility and better typing.
While it is not shape-shifting, I’ve experienced a touch screen where you actually could “feel bumps”. Depending on your fingers position, it vibrates in a way that makes you “feel” a bump or ridge. It was amazing.
Like entering a PIN: You close your eyes and put a finger on the screen. The code centers a numeric keyboard at this position so you are on the “5”. You can move your fingers up, and you can feel a “ridge” when moving to the “2” field. You move left and feel a ridge when moving to the “1” field. If you move back to the “5”, you can feel the “bump”, and it differs from the feel of the “ridge”. Once you are on the right field, you lift your finger and bring it down again to select this number. If you leave it off a bit longer, it just re-centers the keypad to the “5” position.
Of course this only works with one finger, but it is absolutely amazing how convincing this is, especially if you close your eyes.
Neat
