Foldability Research
Pain Point Research: The fixed shape of ordinary mice makes them take up a lot of space when stored, lacking flexibility and failing to meet the needs of users who require both portability and comfort. Traditional portable mice often sacrifice ergonomic design to reduce size, leading to hand fatigue during prolonged use.
Product Showcase
This is an innovative wireless mouse with a flip-out shell design, specifically designed for mobile work and portability needs. The mouse easily switches between active and stowed states via a helmet-like flip structure. When unfolded, it offers an ergonomic and comfortable grip; when stowed, the flip-out shell provides a compact fit, reducing overall size and making it easy to carry. Its design balances aesthetics and practicality, making it suitable for various scenarios including students, business professionals, and travelers.

Supports dual-mode connection via Bluetooth and USB receiver, allowing for quick device switching and meeting diverse needs. Ensures ample power through charging.
