Today I received an awesome long awaited new toy that I backed from Kickstarter, a shiny special launch edition Swiftpoint Award Winning mouse The Z

Features:

–Full RGB lighting and a small customizable OLED screen (see image)
–Gyroscope/accelerometer provides for joystick-like use
–Force-sensitive clicking that can be customized in the software
–Button variations to suite your preference
–Feet for “joystick” and “tilting” functions

Extras:

–Large mouse mat
–Machined aluminum cable holder

After more than three years of development, we are ready to launch The Swiftpoint Z.

It’s the world’s first mouse to pivot, tilt and roll, with a brand new way of clicking buttons – meaning you can access dozens of different button actions while barely moving your fingers.

The Swiftpoint Z also senses how hard you click, giving variable speed/force control, and provides tactile feedback, so you know when you’ve made a ‘deeper click’. We built in an Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Force Sensor & Tactile Feedback to unleash a faster, more precise and highly intuitive mouse.
