Consider how you use your mouse. You actually click or move it a couple of times a minute. The rest of the time you are waiting for web pages to load, thinking, or looking at the screen.

For most computer workers, during this down time, the hand still remains clenching the mouse or hovering over the mouse. That habit keeps your hand, wrist and shoulder muscles tense.

Continuous stress increases repetitive stress injuries (RSI's) and it's uncomfortable. Try this to see how significant this tension is. If you are holding your mouse tight while reading this, let the mouse go and put your hand on the table next to it or in your lap. You should feel less tension as the hand, arm and shoulder muscles are allowed to relax? 

Letting go when the mouse isn't in actual use is a good habit, but it is hard to think about releasing the mouse when you are concentrating on your work. That's why the HoverStop mouse was created.

HoverStop mouse senses if your hand is on or hovering over the mouse. If a hand is detected, it starts monitoring actual mouse use (the actions of clicking or scrolling). If you have not used the mouse for 10 seconds, a soft vibration will remind you to take your hand away.

After a while, you won't notice the vibration anymore and because it is not visual or acoustic, your mind will not register the signal. But the action trains your body which responds by taking the hand away. It creates a conditioned reflex.

The HoverStop mouse relaxes you up to 25 times an hour, providing an average 10 minutes of rest each hour. That is a lot of relaxation time. Most people find it not only helps them relax, but also improves concentration on the task at hand. They tire less and feel more comfortable.

Hoverstop is an optical USB mouse that works independently of operating systems.
