The Contour RollerMouse is an innovative new option to a computer mouse and a remarkably simple solution to implement in your enterprise. Its ergonomic design places cursor control just below the spacebar of any keyboard... making data entry faster, safer, and more comfortable for right- or left-handed computer users.

The RollerMouse is a unique and simple ergonomic pointing device that helps prevent strain and tension of upper extremity muscles including shoulders and elbows. It is a remarkable way to control the cursor without the need to grip or reach for a mouse, and requires minimal space. When you use the Contour RollerMouse, your hands and fingers stay on the keys... no more awkward or uncomfortable reaching for a mouse. And the RollerMouse's built-in ergonomic palm supports provide optimum comfort and safety.

The RollerMouse can be controlled with thumb or fingertip motion using either hand, and cursor control is placed where it makes sense; just below the spacebar of your keyboard. Programmable buttons and a scroll wheel speed up repetitive functions, and optical technology ensures precise control of cursor movement. The RollerMouse is best for workspaces with no room for a mouse. It frees up space, providing more room to a user with close working conditions

The Roller Bar provides cursor control by sliding left to right, up and down, and diagonally. Pressing the Roller Bar also performs single click operation. Middle Button performs Double Click. Left button is standard single click Right button selects contextual menus. Scroll Wheel can be pressed to perform AUTO scroll function

The RollerMouse Pro has larger buttons (as shown at right) and a bar which is 67% longer. This unit offers the following distinct features differentiating it from the Classic RollerMouse:

  • New RollerBar Design for Effortless Control of the Cursor is 67% Longer than the 'Classic' RollerMouse - making the product comfortable for all, even people with broad shoulders.
  • Two more Buttons to extend versatility and flexibility - includes "Drag Lock" and "Double Click" functionality
  • Larger easier to target buttons
  • Only available in black, no PS/2 port for an additional mouse

The RollerMouse Pro was Voted #1 INPUT DEVICE at the
National Ergonomics Conference & Expo - LAS VEGAS, 2004

For most shorter people, the Classic RollerMouse (still available in both black and white) may continue to be the preferred option. The Rollerwave accessory (providing double the depth of wrist support) attaches to the PRO model in the same manner as on the Classic RollerMouse.

The RollerMouse allows the users to perform tasks such as pointing, clicking and scrolling while keeping their arms in a relaxed position at their side. By eliminating the reaching for a standard mouse, there is a noticeable reduction in strain on the shoulder and elbow.

The RollerMouse enhances your current keyboard, and is supported by virtually all computer operating systems with no software drivers to install. And for people who just can't give up their current mouse, the Classic RollerMouse includes a PS/2 port (not available on the RollerMouse Pro). This flexibility allows the user to alternate easily the workload to different muscle groups throughout the course of the workday.
