Meet the OM Mouse, a new mouse designed to relieve the strain produced by long term mouse use.

The trendy, futuristic looking accessory is the product of studies that show the strain on your hands comes from the fingertips, so the mouse was designed to force users to spread their hand while using it.

The mouse is wireless, of course, but it’s only major feature is it’s ergonomic advantage. For a long time I favoured the Microsoft standard mouse, so the Apple Magic Mouse I now use feels pretty flat. It’s got nothing on the Om mouse though.

Like many design showcases, this is more of a proof-of-concept than anything else. That said, there’s plenty of room for development in the data input accessory market.
