Mouse For Men：男人的鼠標(biāo)

Win7之家（ afsion.com.cn）：Mouse For Men：男人的鼠標(biāo)

印度設(shè)計(jì)師 Nitin Mane 為LG cube Competition 2010 設(shè)計(jì)的概念鼠標(biāo)“男人專用鼠標(biāo)（Mouse For Men）”，從外形看來，是不是更象是一只小老鼠？

Mouse For Men 表面采用了曲線形OLED 觸摸屏，通過點(diǎn)擊觸摸屏就可以實(shí)現(xiàn)鼠標(biāo)操控。

同時(shí)，Mouse For Men 鼠標(biāo)內(nèi)置熱傳感器，可以提醒你使用鼠標(biāo)的時(shí)間是否太長。該鼠標(biāo)支持無線，鼠標(biāo)線采用了分離式設(shè)計(jì)（鼠標(biāo)線也許只是為了看上去更象老鼠）。

可能是設(shè)計(jì)者考慮到操控這樣的鼠標(biāo)對(duì)于女性來講略顯復(fù)雜，所以才命名為Mouse for Men。

有時(shí)候，命名是個(gè)學(xué)問，因?yàn)楹苋菀鬃屓藷o限遐想?yún)s看到后有種無法言傳的失望。

還有些英文介紹，太長了——

The concept

Developed for LG Cube Competition 2010, the “Mouse for Men” by Indian designer Nitin Mane is a mouse concept with a flexible touchscreen and pressure sensitive technology to enhance the experience of modern geeks. Inspired by the original mouse, the new mouse includes a separable tail for the ease of use. Based on the design and position of the human hand to enhance the comfort, the futuristic mouse seems to place buttons in opposite directions, though they work like contemporary mice.

The shift

In the recent past we have marked a great shift in the form and function of electronic gadgets, thanks to latest design techniques and innovations in technology. The wireless optical mouse is the latest PC accessory that eliminating internal moving parts of the mechanical mouse uses a light-emitting diode and photodiodes to detect movement relative to the underlying surface. However, nobody thought about the mixing of the touchscreen with a mouse that presenting touch controls will make the mouse more ergonomic and user friendly. Check out the slideshow to go through some highly efficient mice of the future.

Forces behind the shift

With the changing needs of modern workspaces we need some highly efficient and functional gadgets to enhance the work efficiency and keep up the pace with rest of the world. Since touchscreen technology is improving day by day and becoming an integral part of modern lifestyle, it can play an important part in enhancing the usability of contemporary gadgets. Moreover, users are looking for more decent devices to keep updated with modern technology.

The windward side

The Mouse for Men comes with OLED touchscreen interface and status display, allowing users to customize buttons and menus according to their work needs or individual preference. Featuring a customizable thumb launcher to quickly access the need of the user, the touch sensitive mouse also allows emergency charging at end of normal battery life. Designed for easy handling, the concept mouse integrates a heat sensor to know the current heat generated by your hand on the screen, so you could take care of the screen and your working hours as well. While on/off launchers with customizable menu on both sides avoid undesired contact with the thumb launch menu.

The leeward side

Touchscreen devices usually have no additional keys and this means when an app crashes, without crashing the OS, you can’t get to the main menu, as the whole screen becomes unresponsive. In addition, touch sensitive devices usually have low precision, with virtual QWERTY keyboards being one of the most annoying things. Moreover, touchscreen devices require massive computing power which leads to slow devices and low battery life.
