Abstract: A finger-mounted input device with an integrated accelerometer that functions as a computer input device capable of transmitting manipulation signals controlled by a touch pad, track ball, or joystick and switching signals controlled by buttons. It can be used in place of a mouse input device when used with a computer or as a supplementary input device in conjunction with a mouse. It can also substitute for hands free controls, remote controls, and other electronic input accessories to extend the versatility of these other electronic tools. The device frees up the user from having to reach and manipulate a detached mouse or similar input device in order to enter commands into a computer or other electronic device.
