Microsoft Touch Mouse

Microsoft Corporation at CES 2011 has demonstrated its new development - a computer mouse Touch Mouse , but now we have seen some changes compared to the previous announcement of this device. The “fresh” version of the device became almost completely touch-sensitive and even the scrolling wheel was lost - the sensor would also replace it. Scrolling can be appropriate movements across the surface of the mouse. Mechanical left only the left and right mouse buttons.



Pictures are clickable.





As stated by representatives of Microsoft , this mouse is more focused on Windows 7 . Many routine operations can be performed using gestures that the user can customize to your taste. So, you can record gestures, for example, to minimize windows, rename files and folders.

The Touch Mouse is made using BlueTrack technology, which improves motion tracking on a wide variety of surfaces.





The mouse has a wireless connection interface. The fact that it will be Bluetooth is not mentioned, so, obviously, we are talking about a radio frequency connection.





The device allows you to use 3 fingers simultaneously.

With one finger you can: scroll, zoom in, move across the page to the right-left, up and down.

With two fingers you can: minimize to the taskbar, maximize from it, expand the window to full screen

With three fingers, you can: close all windows, switch to the desktop, open the task manager.





The device will be powered by 2 AAA batteries, which will last up to 5 months. The start of sales is scheduled for June of this year, but already now you can pre-order Touch Mouse on Amazon.com for $ 79.95.











And 2 more videos that are on amazon.com. In the near future I will try to upload to YouTube.
