Elecom Offers Sandio Tech Advanced 3D Laser Mouse in Japan.

New product takes 3D Mouse technology to highest level ever

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Sandio Technology Corporation, a 3D input company, based in San Jose, California, announced today that Elecom Corporation of Osaka, Japan, will offer a 3D laser mouse based on the Sandio's 3D input technology. Elecom, under its president, Mr. Junji Hada, has created numerous best-selling products and is currently the No.1 in mouse, keyboard, numeric keypad and USB HUB market products in Japan. The new Sandio-based M-3D1UR series mouse will begin shipping in late November.

With the M-3D1UR series mouse, PC users are now able to move along and rotate about x, y, and z-axis, action that requires users to work with multiple keys on the keyboard or an on-screen navigation bar when using a traditional mouse. The M-3D1UR series mouse allows PC users to move freely on CAD software, game software and 3D applications, such as Google Earth.

Elecom's M-3D1UR series employs high precision laser sensors and offers users greater flexibility through multiple dpi: 400, 800, 1600 and 2000.

As the market leader of input devices in Japan, Elecom has been deploying new input technologies into the Japanese market, offering an advanced mouse even before the Japanese version of Microsoft Windows 3.1 became a significant factor in the market.

Elecom sees the evolution of PC hardware and operating systems leading to 3D applications and 3D games becoming pervasive. Traditional 2D input devices will not be adequate for today's users and the company has predicted a revolution is ahead in the mouse industry with the introduction of its 3D mouse based on Sandio 3D input technology.

In Japan, the manufacturer's suggested retail price of the M-3D1UR series is 12,800 yen. Elecom exhibited the M-3D1UR series 3D mouse at the Tokyo Game Show  in September.
