Company description: Cirque Corp. is the original developer of
touchpad technology and the patent holder of GlidePoint technology.
Founded in 1991, Cirque's mission is to provide intuitive and rich
interfaces for direct fingertip control of computers.
GlidePoint products aid precise control of a computer screen
cursor without rolling parts, allowing the user to move on the
screen by simply gliding a finger across a high-resolution touch
surface. GlidePoint technology is by design more durable and
resistant than mice or trackballs, which tend to clog or break down
from dirt and other elements in the computing environment.
The accuracy and high resolution achieved by the GlidePoint
touchpad exceed industry standards. Coupled with space savings,
durability, and other features, the touchpad offers a unique
solution to less intuitive devices.
Cirque's vision extends to the growth of advanced communications
products, "smart" appliances, interactive television, and other home
and office technologies. Cirque shares the ideal pursued by
Microsoft, Apple, and other industry leaders: graphical interfaces
to simplify the human to computer relationship on complex machines.
By focusing on the capacitive input device, Cirque plans to utilize
its proven touchpad expertise to continue to improve computer
control.
