Hardware Programming for a PC mouse prototype
Budget: €250 – €1,000 EUR
I am an industrial designer and I’m currently working on a small startup project for PC mice against RSI complaints (carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, etc.). Since the position of the mouse is not the problem at all, but rather the clicking or the tense "hovering" over the keys, I would like to try out two possible solutions with a prototype:
1. Touch-capacitive keys, which only trigger a command and not hold the command - for example: simple left-click, not left-click held. (A mouse is already available, so as far as I understand it, the existing click buttons would only have to be replaced by touch-capacitive buttons.)
2. Triggering the clicks with sounds such as whistling etc. (For the first prototype, it would be sufficient if an external microphone triggers a left-click from a certain volume)
In addition, I would need three external touch-capacitive buttons, which trigger Shift, Control and Command as usual and can be freely positioned. For the time being, aesthetics play no role.
Best regards, Simon Hochleitner
