Description

A wearable computer mouse {Wearable computer mouse}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a computer mouse, and more particularly, to a wearable computer mouse that can be easily and conveniently used by being worn on the hand.

A typical computer mouse consists of an optical system for measuring the position, three buttons for performing a click function, and a wheel for scrolling. In many cases, the wheel also functions as a button. Depending on whether the mouse is wired or wirelessly connected to the computer, a power source and a wireless transceiver may be added to the electronic circuitry of the mouse.

In addition, since the computer mouse is not divided into a module type in which the operation part, the optical part, and the circuit part are detachable for carrying out important functions of the mouse, if the failure occurs in one of these parts, the whole mouse must be replaced .

In addition, a keyboard and a mouse of a computer are the most common input devices, and the typing of characters is performed by the keyboard, and the mouse is responsible for the movement of the cursor on the monitor and the execution of the icon menu. Keyboards and mice are essential for most computer programs.

However, the input method of the recent touch type monitor is not enough to replace completely with the existing mouse. In the case of a conventional mouse, while the user is typing the keyboard with both hands, a mouse remote from the computer can not be used. Therefore, when the mouse is required to be used, it is inconvenient for the user to stop using the keyboard and move the mouse with the mouse to operate the mouse.

To overcome this, a palm-belt-type mouse that can be inserted into a hand is introduced in China Public Service 201465059. However, this is aimed at solving the inconvenience of using a conventional conventional mouse due to the inconvenience of the finger, so that two operation buttons, which can be operated with a thumb, are formed outside the U-shaped belt bottom, And there is a disadvantage in that it is not easy to use because there is no disadvantage that the operation of the mouse is delayed due to the construction that can be operated only with the thumb and the wheel and there is no wheel and the optoelectronic interface provided at the palm position is a floor where the palm of the hand There is a disadvantage in that it does not function as an interface depending on the material.
