The Lipstick is an alternative computer mouse for people who cannot use a standard mouse. With the LipStick, all mouse functions can be controlled with the mouth. Anybody who has problems with a hand-controlled mouse, may benefit from the LipStick.
Note: This product is sold and ships as a bundle which includes the LipStick Mouse and a table mount.
The screen cursor follows the movements of the mouth. The left- and right mouse buttons are operated by lifting one of the lips.
While other mouth-operated mice use sipping and puffing to control the mouse buttons, the LipStick has capacitive sensors in the tip that monitor the position of the lips.
Because the tip is completely closed, there are no hygienic problems with saliva build-up and cleaning is easy. It is also a good solution for people who are on a respirator and have difficulties with sipping and puffing.
Unlike most other mouth-operated computer mice, the LipStick is not a joystick but a force stick. There are no moving parts and it needs only small head movements.
The LipStick is based on a unique new sensor technology that allows accurate measurement of microscopic distortions of the virtually solid aluminum housing. This makes the LipStick very sensitive and very robust at the same time.
Table mount
The included table mount is both elegant and sturdy. The intended use is to mount the LipStick or other sensors on a desk or e.g. wheelchair table. The table mount consists of a table clamp, a lower arm, an upper arm and a mounting adapter of choice, dependent on the device that needs to be affixed. The table clamp can be used with tables up to 4.5 cm thick.

User software
The LipStick is a plug and play device that can be used right out of the box. The factory default settings will satisfy most users. However, it comes with special Windows software that can be used to change various settings to suit personal preferences or applications. Up to five user setting profiles can be stored and quickly and easily selected. All changes are stored in the LipStick itself. If you use the device with another computer, your personal preferences are retained.
