Multi Monitor Mouse

If you have ever worked on a multi-monitor system (two or more displays connected to the same computer) you have probably experienced the annoyance of having to move the mouse across large distances in order to access different parts of the desktop.

Multi Monitor Mouse (M3) widget allows you to warp your pointer across the monitor bezel (see figure) and thus speed up your interactions!

M3 allows for conventional control of the mouse within each monitor's screen, while permitting immediate warping across monitors when desired to increase mouse traversal speed.

M3 virtually simulates having one mouse pointer per monitor when using a single physical mouse device.

M3 is particularly beneficial in heterogeneous multi-monitor setups where monitors differ in size, resolution, orientation and distance to the user.

Our initial users report both strong preference for pointer warping and substantial increase in productivity (up to 29% faster targeting with a standard 5-button mouse)!
