About

The Chester Mouse in brief

The Chester Mouse is a simplified computer mouse designed around a single-button interface. By reducing the number of mouse buttons, it can make point-and-click activities easier to understand for early learners and users who are confused by conventional left- and right-click controls. The user moves the optical mouse to position the pointer and activates the single button to select. It is suited to simple educational software, early computer skills and activities where one click function is sufficient. Current connector and operating-system compatibility should be confirmed against available stock.
