What BBN said about it

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA company called Arctic Fox Technologies has announced a mouse with a touchscreen built into the underside where your palm rests, instead of rows of shortcut buttons, The Verge reports.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentIt's called the Super Mouse, and the screen is three point one inches across, with a seven hundred twenty by seven hundred twenty resolution, PetaPixel says.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSo you tap shortcuts and macros on the screen, and it also has swipe typing, plus voice dictation in over ninety languages that the company says is processed locally.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOkay, that's a whole control panel in your hand. Every shortcut you've ever forgotten, one tap away and glowing.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorUnder your palm, Kenji. The screen lives exactly where your hand goes.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe company says it's been through over a year of prototype testing. So presumably somebody's palm has met the screen.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd call that a hands-on interface experience.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAnd Turtle Beach already did a smaller version, a two point two five inch screen on its Command Series MC7.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentBackers can pre-order on Kickstarter for one hundred ninety-nine dollars, with shipping in February twenty twenty-seven. Retail is planned at two hundred forty-nine.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentVerdict: a maybe.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorKickTraq showed one backer and one hundred ninety-nine dollars pledged of a five thousand dollar goal. I'd call that an exclusive founding circle.
