The challenge

This project is designed to give independence to people who have some difficulty holding a computer mouse and allow them the freedom to use the computer for work or hobbies.

Who it helps

This solution was originally designed in collaboration with Katya, but it can benefit anyone who has the motor skills to click a mouse yet struggles with proprioception (the awareness of body position in space).

How it works

The user slides their hand under the straps, securing it completely to the mouse. This guarantees that the user's hand will always be on the mouse and will not "wander" from it while working on the computer.
