Air mouse

An air mouse is a computer mouse that controls the cursor using motion-sensing technology and does not require a desk. You can control the cursor by waving the mouse in the air as if you were pointing to where you want the cursor to go. For example, a person doing a presentation may use an air mouse to control a cursor and the presentation while standing.

In addition to controlling the mouse pointer while standing, an air mouse often has additional buttons to help control the presentation slides. One button moves back to the previous slide, and another button moves forward to the next slide.
