Yo-Yo wireless mouse concept charges with the flick of a wrist, saves your back (Engadget)
We’ve seen plenty of round mice, including Apple’s infamous puck, and many
devices that derive power from a yo-yo-like pull string mechanism. So we’re
not quite sure why we’ve never seen those two concepts married before. In
retrospect, a wireless mouse charged by the kinetic energy of using it as a
yo-yo seems like a painfully obvious idea. As an added bonus, this tiny
pointer with an LCD battery gauge makes you get up every so often and get your
limbs moving — thus saving you from chromic back pain. Huzzah! Of course,
there’s no guarantee you’ll ever actually see one of these on shelves. Check
out the source for a few more pics.
