Although we found the Microsoft Research technologies demonstrated here mostly uninspiring (unlike last week's cool multi-touch demonstration by BumpTop), they will be of interest to anyone studying or working on interface design. Microsoft's five experimental mice use a variety of sensing technologies to translate user gestures into on-screen actions, giving us entirely new ways to develop carpal tunnel.

Oh, and the boys at Microsoft haven't lost their touch for naming products and technologies--as you'll see in the vid, one of the mice operates via something called "Frustrated Total Internal Reflection." via engadget
