EvoMouse Offfers Multitouch Control



evoMouse Pet, a dog-shaped device that turns any surface into a touchpad. Tracking your fingers, it lets you do anything a regular mouse can do, and then some.



Beyond conventional mouse functions such as cursor control, right- and left-clicking, dragging and double-clicking, the Celluon evoMouse offers multitouch capabilities, letting you rotate and zoom on images and scroll text using gestures. The device can even recognize your handwriting if you use either your finger or pen.

Celluon says the evoMouse Pet will be available first in the UK in late March or early April at a price of around $99. But is it worth it? Couldn’t you just get a Magic Trackpad from Apple that can do the same gestural controls? Sure, but that only works on a Mac — this device works with Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Windows, Android and BlackBerry.



It’s small enough to take with you, and connects either wirelessly via Bluetooth or plugged in with a USB cable. Take a look at Celluon’s teaser video and you’ll get an idea of the scale of this tiny device, whose two laser eyes follow your hand’s every movement.
