While some of us find it difficult as it is to type on some days, imagine what the Chinese speaking world must endure just to list down a bunch of Chinese characters. Not only do they have to learn how to verbalize the characters in a Romanized form, but there are tons of intonations to choose from. Hanwang from China developed a special mouse to remedy this situation, featuring a built-in pad that boasts handwriting recognition technology. All you need to do is scribble these characters on the dragon pad directly with an included stylus and they’ll appear on your screen. Pricing and availability details are unknown, but it looks pretty hard to write anything on a curved surface like that, let alone complicated Chinese characters.
