(From Geekologie) This is “The Bat“, a magnetically levitating computer mouse designed by KIBARDINDESIGN.
It does everything a regular mouse does plus levitates and probably cost 100x more.
“The Bat” — levitates at a height of 40 millimeters on its own, or 10mm beneath the weight of your 1000g (~2.2-pound) hand.
The whole setup comprises a base/bat-pad and a floating left-/right-click mouse conjoined with a magnetic ring. Also there’s a scroll wheel.
This unholy chimera of pseudo-futuristic and unaccountably retro tech is ostensibly designed to relieve pressure on the median nerve of the wrist, which the studio claims will prevent and treat the numbness, tingling, and muscle damage of the hand that’s characteristic of repetitive use injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome.
