Abstract: The present invention teaches an improved method of controlling a cursor on a computer screen, without using the hand, by strapping the mouse around the patella section of the leg with a patella strap and utilizing leg muscle movement, while sitting down, to control the direction of the cursor. After manipulating the cursor by using body movement and keeping both hands on the keyboard, the programmable function keys or another hands free or appendage attached push button, motion, or voice device are used to execute a command. By eliminating the need of hand movement to move the cursor, the user is helped to prevent the development of carpal tunnel, DeQuervains tendonitis, debilitating muscle cramps, fatigue and other repeated motion related conditions.

Abstract: An adapter module mounts on a utility meter having one or more meter dials. The adapter module has a cover and a mating bracket. The cover includes a plurality of bosses extending from a front side of the cover to a rear side of the cover. The bosses are spaced a predetermined distance from a cover perimeter to provide space for ribs inside the adapter to provide extra support. The cover also has a tamper-proof magnet housing extending from the rear side of said cover and a front battery chamber portion to receive a battery. The mating bracket has a rear battery chamber which, in combination with the front battery chamber, houses one or more batteries. The bracket also has a printed circuit board (PCB) chamber which is adapted to receive a PCB with electronics on-board. The bracket also has a recess which receives a dial dog. The dial dog has a gear for driving original dials of the meter. The dial dog is driven by a meter dog, which in turn is connected to a gear on the original meter.
