Ever since the first computer laser mouse rolled out, it has required a reflective surface – meaning you had limited options for your pointer. Logitech hopes to do away with that barrier, unveiling two laser mice using the company’s so-called “Darkfield Technology.”
The Performance Mouse MX ($99.99) and the Anywhere Mouse MX ($79.99) offer the technology which can use microscopic deformities in otherwise absolutely clear surfaces, such as glass. A video shows the mice tracking on glass and a mirror.
