The Air02bic mouse avoids the use of smaller, easily injured wrist muscles for more comfort/less aches. It allows the user to place their hand in it rather than around it - meaning it is both "gripless" and "clickless", and avoids prolonged muscle tension. Can be used with Glidewell Mouse Mat to lower friction and reduce effort, as well as McNib Clickless Software to make it hands-free.
Who May Benefit From This Assistive Technology? : Students with a Repetitive Stress Injury or limited grip function. Requires wrist ROM to use, but due to design (and furthermore with addition of mouse mat), a lesser amount of strength and effort is required to operate. Additional software makes the mouse accessible for students who do not have functional control of upper extremities.
