Retail debut for gesture controlled mouse

motion_sensing_mouse.jpg HillCrest Labs has developed a new mouse that uses motion-sensing technology to let users control an on-screen cursor with the flick of their wrist. The mouse which is bangle shaped is called the Loop Pointer and is designed for consumers who connect their PC or Mac to a TV. With the help of a combination of sensors and accelerometers, the remote feels the users’ movements and reflects it on the screen. Users can click the right or left button on the remote to make their selections. To use the Loop, consumers will have to plug a small USB 2.0 transceiver into their PC and get started. The Loop is available at a price of $100.
