Flip Flop Mouse

A Chinese designer created a toe mouse that is "worn" like a flip flop shoe! 

Originally designed for those who have upper limbs disability and cannot use their hands to move the mouse, this great mouse uses our natural ability to grip between the toes.

Great news for those who suffer back or shoulder's muscles aches after a long day at work! The sensor below the big toe acts as the left click button and the one below the second toe is the right click.

I find it really pleasant to know that people are racking their brains out there to help other people live an easy and fulfilled life by providing them with adapted devices. Through this, they also allow everyone to live new computer experiences!

Cool, I'll still be able to browse with a beer in a hand, and a big mac in the other.

Aaarrrggghhh, people will injure their toes/feet as well as their hands/wrists!  I typed with my feet to install my first sr software (it came on 10 floppies) that was enough.

 

Also, there are free auto-click programs, I use one; who needs feet? :)
