Mycestro is a 3D mouse that is worn on your fingertips. It seems to be helpful for multi-task processing.
When we are using a computer, our right hand will constantly move between the keyboard and the mouse or touchpad. This movement can be said to be a redundant action, resulting in low efficiency. However, mycestro allows us to skip this action.
Nick mastandrea, the company's founder, has been developing this product for a period of time. Now this product has finally moved to the market. consumers can buy a normal white mouse at $79, or you can order your favorite color at $99. If everything goes well, the product will be delivered in May October this year.
In terms of functionality, this device uses 3D technology and space recognition technology. You do not need to move the entire right arm to navigate the mouse pointer.
Here are some introductions about the 3D mouse:
- Bluetooth headset size
- Lightweight
- Built-in battery that can be charged by USB
- Battery can be used up to 8 hours
- Two-size finger holders
However, this device is also insufficient, and users need to adapt to this device again, just like re-learning the usage of the mouse. In addition, when you are in a cafe or other public place, others may notice you and think you have mental problems. Using this device is like directing your own orchestra, that is, for people who do not know the device, your actions may look strange. If you don't mind what others think, this product is still a very good device.
This product uses Bluetooth to connect to a computer. The maximum control distance is 30 feet, which means you can use this device for PPT demonstration and other activities. In addition, this device will be able to support iPad, iPhone and a variety of Android devices by next year. At that time, this device may be able to change the way people use tablets.
This product reminds me of the somatosensory control of the Xbox Kinect, but it is only in the hands of users and does not require complex settings. The project is currently raising funds on Kickstarter, and there are still 38 days from the deadline. So far, Nick mastandrea and his team have earned $39735 and their target is $100000. I think if people can understand the intention of this product, they will be very likely to achieve their own financing goals. In addition, the company said it would also develop devices for left users. But to be honest, although I am a left-handed person, I am still used to using the mouse and touchpad with my right hand.
