An ambient wire mesh body would be raised about a half an inch from an inner mouse body, which will allow for air circulation underneath the hand to prevent it from becoming sweaty, without the use of any electrically motorized fans.

Plus, it would look cool. |
|
|
Am the only person who only grasps his mouse with three fingertips? |
|
|
You're not alone [Galbinus], I only ever use my fingertips. |
|
|
Your fingertips can get sweaty too. |
|
|
I apparently now only use my thumb and littlest finger to hold and move the mouse. Huh. Maybe that's because it's hot here--a mesh mouse might be better for my hand. |
|
|
I once cut a silicone stress ball in two, and stuck one half on my mouse as a palm rest. It was very comfy, but it looked strange. The plastic body of the mouse dissolved a bit, too. |
|
|
I use my thumb, pinky and ring finger, and sort of nudge the mouse around with my first two fingers hovering over the buttons. The fingers are never on the mouse long enough to get sweaty. (And I am a world class sweater, on my third shirt today.) |
|
|
Could be because I started using a mouse when they were much much smaller. (Loved my old MS Dovebar mouse.) Or that I learned keyboards long before mice, so hovering over an input device seems natural. |
|
|
Anyway, Bun for BJS, it would look cool! |
|
|
people have punched holes in the plastic
of their mice, and built fans inside of
them. lemme see if i can find a link. |
|
|
Companies actually sell mice now with fans already in them. |
|
|
I want to do this to my wireless mouse now. |
|
|
Don't forget about the buttons... |
|
|
A way to help visualize this is; imagine something like an Apple mouse Pro, but instead of a clear acrylic shell, there would be a mesh around the inner body. |
|
|
Am I the only one who envisioned a live mouse with a mesh body and realized the annos were of a different nature somewhere around [baconbrain]'s anno? Damn. |

Would you link up whatever website you have been perusing? |
|
|
Only the halfbakery, why? |
|
|
If you make a mesh Trackball Im in. My Palm aways gets sweaty where it rests on the body of the Base. |
