The concept of a trackball is a novel idea that part of the act: it must move the pointer, not the device, which is adapted to provide a ball, so when you put your hand can move up through the thumb without having to move around or the whole hand as before. Thereby reducing the effort and the space requirement, in addition to avoiding a possible pain forearm by the movement thereof. Some people, however, not be really comfortable finish. This guy has been very useful in the computerization of such shipping. It is the most popular format and cheaper, however there are many added features that can raise their price for example if they use laser technology such as motion sensor. Currently distributed with two types of connectors possible, USB & PS / 2, was also once popular use the serial port. In this case the device is used without a physical cable communication between this and the computer, using some form of wireless technology. This requires a focus point of the wireless signal, a receiver, which batteries produced by the mouse or mouse, the issuer. The receiver is normally connected to the computer via USB or PS / 2. As wireless technology used can distinguish several possibilities. This is the most common and cost of such technologies. It works by sending a signal to a frequency of 2.4GHz, popular in the mobile phone or cell phone, the same as the IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g. It is popular among other things, his few mistakes of disconnection or interference with other wireless equipment, in addition to having a sufficient range: 3 meters or 10 feet. This technology uses infrared frequency signal as a means of data transmission, also popular among controls or remote controls for televisions, stereos or cell phones. Unlike the former, having a medium range less than 3 meters, has been less successful. In addition to both the sender and receiver must be in a visual line of contact, directly and interrupted, so that the signal is received correctly. Bluetooth is the latest technology and wireless transmission (IEEE 802.15.1), with some success on other devices. Its range is about 10 meters or 30 feet (corresponding to the standard Bluetooth Class 2). It is some time, common in computer equipment so that all modern operating systems often include software serial, driver (driver), essential for this to work immediately and correctly. However, it is normal to find the manufacturer's own software that can add a number of optional features or proper drivers if needed. Until mid-2005, the well-known Apple Mac systems continued to bet on a mouse or a single button mouse, designed to facilitate and simplify the user the various possible tasks. Today has launched a two-button model with simulated or virtual sensors beneath the plastic cover, two programmable side buttons and a ball to move the pointer, called Mighty Mouse. In Windows, the most common is the use of two or three main buttons. On UNIX systems like GNU / Linux to use graphical environment (X Window), was common to have three buttons (to facilitate the operation of copy and paste data directly). At present, the third button functionality is often built into the central wheel so that besides being able to be rotated, can be pressed. Today every modern operating system can use up to three different buttons and even more extra buttons to acknowledge that the software recognizes and can add other specific functions such as allocating a fourth and fifth button operation to copy and paste the text. The sophistication has gone to extremes in some cases, such as Logitech MX610, launched in September 2005. Prepared for right anatomically, has up to 10 buttons. As mentioned, the most common failure in mechanical technology arises because of the accumulation of dirt stopping or hindering the movement of the pointer on the screen. The solution is simple, can be easily removed the rubber ball on the bottom and thus have access to the axes of plastic for cleaning, for example with a small hard brush.
