Skymouse is a wireless input device, which can capture gestures through its own LED lights and infrared camera, allowing you to control the mouse with gestures without the shackles of the mouse, giving you a new human-computer interaction experience.

Although great changes have taken place in the electronic products around us, the mouse basically keeps its original shape and has not changed much. Now the bad mouse is one of the culprits of arthritis. Considering that we spend most of our time on the computer every day, a comfortable mouse becomes very important.

The project leader of Skymouse is ELIOTT Ephrati, an interaction designer and game enthusiast. He believes that the current mouse greatly limits the human-computer interaction experience, so he has always wanted to invent a more intuitive interaction mode than the current mouse.

Skymouse is similar to Leap Motion in that it realizes human-computer interaction through body feeling. Skymouse uses infrared light-emitting diodes and infrared camera tracking technology. It uses a unique algorithm to calculate the movement of your fingers and thus calculate the direction and speed of the cursor. However, compared with Leap Motion, Skymouse is a little more troublesome, and users must wear black finger caps.

This mouse is plug and play, you don't need to install any drivers and software, just turn on the computer, connect your USB and you can use it.

In fact, in addition to the general use scenarios, we can also give play to our imagination. For example, we can use Skymouse to demonstrate PPT in front of customers, and use it to play games or paint. We believe that Skymouse, like Leapmotion, will have considerable space for thinking and more use scenarios. But who is better among them? We need to experience before we know.

At present, Skymouse is raising funds on Kickstarter. Favorite friends can support them.
