Top 10 Strangest Computer Mices


Techeblog have published a list of the Top 10 strangest computer mices. Computer mice come in all odd shapes and sizes so they decided to compile a list of the ten strangest that they have come across.


Wowpen





Sony VN-CX1 Mouse Phone




1. Foot Mouse


Put simply, the Foot Mouse is the strangest we�ve seen. One pedal controls movement while the other is for the clicks. Pedals are made from an injection molded plastic shell and feature a �360-degree, pressure sensitive mechanism�.


2. CP-1 USB Spy Mouse


Keep a close ear on your computer with the CP-1. Hidden inside this otherwise normal looking mouse is a condenser microphone - capable of picking up on any nearby conversations. It measures 53 x 95 x 35 mm and weighs just 75g.


3. Powerglove Mouse


Zerosign managed to convert an old Nintendo Powerglove into a fully functioning computer mouse after countless hours of wiring and hacking.


4. AMG Helmet Optical Mouse

SolidAlliance Japan presents an innovative new wireless optical mouse with a design inspired by Jean Alesi�s AMG-Mercedes Helmet.


5. NES Controller Optical Mouse


Most optical mice are boring, not this one. To make your own, you�ll need an NES controller, optical mouse, dremel tool, lots of glue, soldering gun, and four-five hours.


6. Mouse Phone


This nifty device combines both telephone and mouse into a very uncomfortable looking design. Who really wants to rest their palm on a keypad when surfing the web?


7. Mus2 Cursor Mouse


Breaking completely from the typical design for computer mice, Art. Lebedev�s Mus2 is unique to say the least. This cursor-shaped optical mouse has 800 dpi optical sensor resolution, up to 2300 fps frame speed, and is compatible with all Windows/Mac OS X systems.


8. Mario Bros Computer Mice


Available in either Mario or Goomba characters, these mice feature a 400dpi mechanical ball, USB support, and are compatible with Windows/Mac systems.


9. Street Mouse


Available in a candy red color, this BMW-styled �Street Mouse� features always on headlights and tailights that illuminate with movement. Other perks include chrome wheels, tinted windows, and 800dpi optical tracking.


10. Zero Tension Mouse



Looking more like a joystick, this USB mouse features the basic functions (scroll wheel, right/left mouse buttons), digital optical tracking, and comes in medium/large sizes. It measures 4.5 x 3.4 x 5.6 in. and is compatible with MAC/PC computers.
