Asus Vito W1 heart monitoring mouse

Apparently, the need to combine condition monitoring devices with almost anything around us has become a trend. Although we don’t have anything against it, and we’ve actually put one product on our Top 5 nifty concepts of this year ( the diabetes monitoring car ) this one is utterly useless. Besides the possibilities of checking your heart rate when you’re playing a breathtaking game or checking the stock market, there isn’t too much to this mouse. It comes bundled with a pulse rate sensor that will send the information to a simple heart-monitoring software which will interpret the data and display an emoticon on your screen, correspondent to your heart rate. It comes with a smallish USB driver, a sensitivity of 1200dpi, a maximum range of 30 feet ( 9,1 meters ) and 5 programmable buttons.No word on a price nor on a release date just yet.
