Product

The offering contains a fully functional mouthstick, made of the modular and flexible pointer, a highly conductive fabric plug (tip) and an ergonomic mouthpiece that is available in two sizes: Regular (Adult) and Mini (Kids).
By default, the mouthstick is 12″ (30.48cm) long, with two small flexible sections (mouth and tip) and two extended flexible sections (center).

The Innovation
The innovation of this offering is the combination of a building block setup and a highly conductive kernel inside the hose system to use the pointer as a stylus. Since the pointer itself is made from hollow plastic parts, aa cable sleeve with a silver lining was put inside to make it work for a touchscreen. As such, it can be used as a mouth controlled stylus that doesn’t require direct body contact.
