An Intelligent Mouse Wheel-Design Concept and Application

摘要

The virtually multiple mouse wheels is a new input device; however, as it has not yet been supported by application software, the left scroll and right scroll can only operate a few software functions. In this study, computer software is combined with a virtually multiple mouse wheel to intercept left and right scroll signals in the background, which are converted into the start signal of software and sent to the application software in order that software functions can be operated. The left scroll and right scroll operate the preset function, and the user software interface implemented in this study enables the user to set the function to be operated, thus, meeting different users' requirements. In addition, the software interface can detect the software of the mouse cursor, and the mouse wheel function is automatically adjusted according to the software. This mouse wheel not only senses the different scroll positions of the finger, it also automatically distinguishes different software environments, which provides diversified software function responses, thus, it is called the intelligent mouse wheel.
