Innovative Simtrix Swiftpoint TriPed & Swiftpoint Slider Computer Mice – Far Removed From Your Traditional Mouse

As far as computer mice go, these innovative Swiftpoint TriPed and Swiftpoint Slider mice from Simtrix, designed for tablet and mobile PC use respectively, certainly offer stunningly distinctive designs far removed from that of traditional computer mice.

According to the official product site ‘Swiftpoint technology combines innovations in hardware and software that enable a more intuitive and ergonomic method of interfacing with the computer across all hardware platforms, software applications and user environments. The Swiftpoint was designed to overcome the limitations and frustrations encountered with the traditional computer mouse. It also allows maximum flexibility and functionality across a diverse range of HCI environments.’

And who are we to argue?

Designed primarily for use with tablet PCs, the Swiftpoint TriPed sports a pen style grip serving to reduce the risk of RSI injuries and comes with ‘perpetual scrolling and zooming’ functions whilst also offering the same functionality as a digitizer pen – allowing the facilitation of writing and drawing capabilities (most notably using Windows Vista’s Digital Ink features).

The Swiftpoint Slider, on the other hand, has been designed primarily for use with mobile computing solutions where space is invariably at a premium with its base, in being curved, allowing the Slider to even be used directly on keyboard keys whilst also offering the Tripen’s writing and drawing capabilities.

At the time of writing we are unable to obtain pricing information concerning either device, however, interested parties can avail themselves of further information concerning these highly compact and highly innovative computer mice via the Simtrix Swiftpoint website.
