Jupiter Wooden Mouse – a spherical computer mouse that is made of wood, giving you completely different mousing experience from any computer mouse that you’ve ever used. The Jupiter Wooden mouse needs you to tilt and hold it instead of moving it around on a mouse pad.
The mouse is designed to look like the largest planet in the Solar system – Jupiter. It spherical body is similar to what the planet Jupiter has on its surface, carrying many bands or belts.
To use it, as mentioned, just tilt it to move the cursor in the relevant direction on your screen. The magnitude of tilting determines the pointer velocity, which is pretty similar to the way you operate a joystick. The mouse is available from Actbrise Electronics for ¥13,980 or $140, which sounds pretty expensive that only wooden gadget fanboy would probably consider. Here comes the video of the Jupiter wooden mouse in action!
