Abstract
A computer mouse comprising a scroll wheel, a braking system operable to provide a braking force on the scroll wheel, and a sensor system operable to detect a force or motion of the scroll wheel in the first and second directions. In response to receiving a control signal to stop rotation of the scroll wheel in the first direction, the braking system applies the braking force on the scroll wheel when the sensor indicates that the force or motion of the scroll wheel is in the first direction and removes the braking force when the sensor indicates that the force or motion of the scroll wheel is in the second direction.
