Abstract: A computer mouse including a base with bottom surface equipped with cushion members with slid-able sheets configured for sliding across the working surfaces and a tip with a base, which can be placed on the bottom surface or penetrate the bottom surface, where the base is not extended beyond the cushion members to avoid touching the working surfaces, and the tip is extended beyond the cushion members to provide a resistance point during mouse movement over the working surface, wherein the resistance point provides precise movement of the mouse over the work surface without affecting the position and navigation of the pointer on a computer screen.

Abstract: A computer mouse including a base with bottom surface for sliding across a work surface, with a retrievable tip for providing a resistance point for precision movements. At retrieved position, the tip is not touching the work surface, providing regular mouse movement. At working position, the tip is touching the work surface and creating resistance for precise movement of the mouse over the work surface. In some embodiments, computer mouse operated with tip in braked position allows the user to make rotational movements/gestures that can be registered by computer program to invoke actions. This new type of gesture is especially important for people with disabilities that have difficulties with existing gesture like clicking button. In some embodiments, computer mouse operated with tip in braked position allows users with hand tremor to improve cursor positioning by stopping cursor in vicinity of target, then reaching target by rotational movement.

Abstract: System and method for securing a personal device that includes a device core and a peripheral device from unauthorized access or operation. The system comprises an isolated switch, included fully or partially within an envelope of the personal device. The isolated switch cannot be affected in its operation by either the device core or the peripheral device. The switch may be operated by an authorized user of the personal device either preemptively or in response to a detected threat. In some embodiments, the isolated switch includes an isolated controller which can send one or more signals to the peripheral device and/or part of peripheral device. In some embodiments, the isolated switch includes an isolated internal component and an isolated external component, both required to work together to trigger the isolated switch operation. In some embodiments, the isolated switch includes an isolated disconnector for connecting and disconnecting the device core from part of the peripheral device.
