TOKYO —Elecom has released two new BlueLED mice that are equipped with BlueLED sensors to provide superior tracking capabilities at a reasonable price
.
The blue light of the BlueLED has a shorter wavelength and higher reading accuracy compared to the red light of existing optical mice, so tracking is accurate even on surfaces with dust or those that are uneven. And since the mouse can be used on surfaces like glass, transparent sheets, and carpet.

The two new series of mice are both BlueLED-equipped, so they can be used comfortably in any number of places, and are both priced reasonably. Tracking performance may decrease when used on perfectly transparent glass surfaces, or perfectly flat surfaces.
The M-BL12UB series is a larger-sized mouse, so you can hold it with your entire hand. It gives you the sensation of having a solid, firm grip, so you can move the mouse around without applying any force with your fingers.
The M-BL6DB series is wireless, and has a symmetrical design that is easy to grip and fits right in your hand. It has five buttons, and is equipped with Forward and Back buttons to make web browsing more convenient.

The receiver unit is extremely small - about the size of a 1 yen coin - so it doesn’t get in the way, and can even be left connected to a laptop’s USB port and carried around without a problem. It can even be stored inside the mouse when not in use.

Other convenient features include a power switch on the backside of the mouse so you can turn it off completely, and a low battery indicator lamp to alert you when it is time to change batteries.
