You had or still have an Amiga? Then you know that the not so ergonomic looking standard mouse of the Amiga is surprisingly ergonomic in use.
In principle a real tank, because the thing is extremely robust. For the current time, however, it can't really be compared with more modern pointing devices, since - due to the ball - it's comparatively imprecise, and due to the technical preferences of the engineers of the 80s, it's cable-bound.
Łukasz Remiś took exactly these facts as an opportunity, and decided to give the beloved device a new life. Of course, one in which the little thing would be equipped with cutting-edge technology like a cyborg … a mouse .. cyborg. 🤖
His Kickstarter project looks rock solid.
The specs are bulls eye, the mouse can be used on any Bluetooth capable computer, and of course the Amiga is supported via a USB-to-DB9 adapter.
Completion unfortunately only in November this year ... but the proven Kickstarter / Indiegogo friend can not be stopped by such things. (I better don’t talk about my FLX experience here …)
