  Microsoft to enable multiple mouses on a PC
Time: 00:17 EST/05:17 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Joyojeet Pal, a PhD student from Berkeley Institute, US, visited a school run by Azim Premji Foundation in 2005. He found several students sharing one PC. One aggressive kid was handling the mouse, while the rest were mere spectators.

When Joyojeet began his summer internship at Microsoft Research in Bangalore, he met assistant researcher Udai Singh Pawar and assistant MD of Microsoft Research India, Kentaro Toyama, who listened to his experiences at the Azim Premji Foundation.

The duo from Microsoft sensed a big opportunity in it for the software giant. In order to improve the learning ability of these children, they thought they could develop a system wherein each student would have a mouse, and all could operate simultaneously on a single PC.
