MicroModule

Finger-actuated 360° mouse pointing module

The MicroModule is a finger-actuated "mouse" pointing module that provides complete 360° directional control and accurate speed control simultaneously. Users control direction by applying pressure in the direction of the desired movement and adjust speed by altering the amount of pressure on the device. An integrated sealing rib makes it possible to seal MicroModule into a system during installation. The device is available in USB or PS/2 versions with three connecting cable options for each, plus a fluorosilicone keypad option for prolonged exposure to fuels, oils, solvents, and aggressive fluids.
