The first dual cursor mouse, DCT-DPM1
Category: Image - Tags:
AMD and Intel already went all dual on us, and now this is the first dual (cursor) mouse on the market (to my knowledge anyway). Don’t ask me anything about practicality or how it is in real life, but the basic idea is that when you press the side of your mouse, a red pointer appears and takes control… and when you release the side of the mouse, the normal cursor appears…

maybe I’m a little slow, but what’s the purpose of this thing? Dual monitors perhaps? has anyone seen a demo?
thanks
thanks
Hehehe don’t worry you are not "slow". Anyway It could be useful in case of dual Screen, or…. well honeslty I do not have a clue !
This is exactly what I need.
I would very much like to be able to control one mouse for the purpose of training or creating scenarios, while another is being used beyond the capture area to control programs that I may need to reference while training.
It would also be of help during Powerpoint Presentations, where one cursor remains with the projections, and another works on a separate screen to perform other actions as the user desires.
I can’t wait for this to become more mainstream. It absolutely has a purpose in my book.
If you are interested in a multi-mouse untility that works with nearly all your existing programs, check out… Peanut Butter Pointer.
anybody think it would be possible to have different mouse sensitivity for each mouse? if so, it would make a killer gaming mouse, ex. run around, shoot like normal, then stop to snipe, press the button and instantly have more control over aiming.. see what im saying? most games offer less sensitivity while scoped in, so it could work either way and crank it or drop it when needed.
Many thanks, JR for the reference to peanut butter pointer!!!!
Works great on my dual monitors.
