Abstract

A foldable computer mouse is provided that includes a deformable body formable into an expanded configuration usable for receiving inputs for controlling a computing device and a folded configuration. The expanded configuration being an arcuate configuration having a first curvature and the folded configuration having a second curvature greater than the first curvature. The mouse also includes a hollow shell disposed on a top surface of the deformable body. The shell expands based at least on the deformable body being formed into the expanded configuration, and the shell collapses against the top surface of the deformable body based at least on the deformable body being folded into the folded configuration. The shell comprises a flexible material that retains a shape of the shell in the expanded configuration.
