Moldable Mouse



The Play Doh lovers will enjoy this mouse. You can shape it any form you want. It is flexable, fun to use and you have now a reason to play with your mouse.
This mouse just won the red dot award: design concept 2007.

Made of lightweight modelling clay and covered with a nylon and polyurethane blend fabric, Moldable Mouse can be kneaded into shapes by users. By allowing a wide variety of hand positions when holding the mouse, it reduces repeated motions of the same posture, thereby minimising the chance of common mouse-related injuries such as the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The click buttons and touch-sensitive scroll pad of the mouse are stick-on parts with built-in RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Device), which can be repositioned for maximum comfort.

I am expecting that a big market will start up for creating the shapes for the mouse. And the image shows that you put the button in the clay and it's a mouse!
