Designer Invents Wireless Yo-Yo Mouse That Charges Itself

What Yanko Design just showed is one thing that we wouldn't mind seeing in the hands or dangling from the fingers of everyone we know.

After all, there is something particularly intriguing about a Yo-Yo mouse, especially when it's wireless and is just as practical as it is cool.

You'd think the world wouldn't take so long to come up with the idea of a mouse that recharges from kinetic energy, but there it is.

This so-called Yo-Yo mouse is supposed to restore the energy to whatever battery powers it by being put through the flick and spin routine Yo-Yos are famous for.

The round shape and the exercise to your wrists is just a bonus.

Alas, as nice as this sounds and looks, we can't really hope that companies will actually start building them.
