An alternative mouse aiming to be used by people with motor control difficulties. It connects to the computer through a USB port and it is very large, which makes it easier to use. It is also heavy with rubber base, to prevent accidental movement. In addition to the big buttons, it also has a very big ball to make it easier to use and more precise. It has three large mouse buttons for left click, right click and drag lock* which are located next to the ball and large empty area under the buttons to use as a hand rest.
This version includes three switch jacks and it allows you to add your own switches and use them instead of the integrated mouse buttons.
* Drag lock function is the function we perform with a regular mouse when dragging the mouse while holding the left mouse button (to select multiple files).
