It relates to a case cover removable computer mouse that can increase the effect of publicity.

In general, a computer mouse is a component that has become an essential input device along with a keyboard as Microsoft's operating system Windows becomes popular. The mouse is the basic input device for operating windows.

The mouse's interface supports the interface to the computer's serial port, PS / 2 port, and USB port.

Recently, serial ports are rarely used because they conflict with the COM ports used by modems, and mice that support PS / 2 interfaces are common.

Regardless of the interface, the basic configuration of the mouse is the same, and the type of mouse can be classified into a ball mouse and an optical mouse according to the position sensing method, and according to the number of buttons, a two-button mouse, a three-button mouse, and a wheel It can also be distinguished by a wheel mouse that allows you to scroll conveniently through the pages.

These structural differences are due to differences in the internal circuits of the mouse, and all of the above mentioned methods have basically the same appearance.

That is, it consists of a lower case part for storing the internal circuit of the mouse, an upper case part designed for the user to hold the mouse in hand, buttons for input, and an optional but recently added scroll wheel.
