FIG. 1 is an isometric top view of an ambidextrous computer input device of the present invention configured for left-handed use. The device includes a main body portion having a central base, which supports a user-manipulated structure in the form of a hand grip, and a wrist support that is selectively attached to either of two sides of the central base. First and second asymmetric sets of control buttons or keys are shown in broken lines.
FIG. 2 is an isometric front view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for left-handed use.
FIG. 3 is an isometric rear view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for left-handed use.
FIG. 4 is an isometric right side view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for left-handed use.
FIG. 5 is an isometric left side view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for left-handed use.
FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for right-handed use. Footpads, longitudinal support ribs, and structure for attaching the main body portion and the wrist support are shown in broken lines.
FIG. 7 is a top plan view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for left-handed use.
FIG. 8 is a top plan view of the ambidextrous computer input device configured for right-handed use.
