AirMouse, a cyberpunk-styled, hand-mounted mouse

The AirMouse begins with the human form and builds functionality around it. The AirMouse is composed of a lightweight durable fabric that seamlessly aligns itself with the ligaments of your hand and wrist and assists them into a neutral posture during use preventing you from developing computer-related repetitive stress injuries such as carpel tunnel syndrome normally associated with other computer mouse use.

I’m not sure I really buy that this is better than a mouse — in my experience, the goal is to find the perfect posture and then move your hand as little as possible. Waving your hand around or hovering it seems like it would cause more stress rather than less. On the plus side, this bad boy would look great with your Thompson Eyephones. [via gizmag]
