    The picture isn’t great, but I’ll bet the framerate is amazing!

    Had to do a double take here. Thought it meant the animal mouse.

      That’s honestly probably a good sign. It means we’ve now come to a point in scientific achievement where that is a genuine possibility that we consider.

    But can you run DOOM on it?

      If you can’t, it’s probably because no one’s tried yet. (30x30 display’s pretty small, though, so I don’t know how playable it would be.)

        Doom can run on a TI-83+, so I’m sure we can resize it a bit to run on the mouse. I know it’s hard right now, what with all the wars and all, but have some faith in humanity!

    Back in the day scanners were not the table model that is obsolete today but were drum scanners or hand scanners of which the latter was a hammerhead mouse with a horizontal optical sensor and regular computer mice used balls for tracking.

      Reminds me of ThunderScan.
