So, I reconfigured my arduino micro to use all 4 interrupt pins(two per throw), and gathered some data. Here's an example of a single "normal" click:
http://pastebin.com/8n9zFHCV
big number = microsecond timer.
0= rising edge on normally high throw = definitely released
1= falling edge on normally high throw
2= falling edge on normally low throw
3= rising edge on normally low throw = definitely pressed
One thing to note is that there are definitely some transitions that were missed, because they happened too quickly to actually handle them all. If you want me to check something else, or have a good way to look at the data for many clicks, let me know.

Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
Open source mouse please
Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
I've had that idea, but there are a lot of things that require capital, like all the injection molding, and getting access to a lot of different sensors and surfaces for testing. Know someone with a huge variety of mice to frankenstein together?lexlazootin wrote:Open source mouse please

Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
Pretty ignorant, but is it actually possible to unsolder the sensor and putting it on your own board/arduino? that would be pretty fucking incredible.Sparky wrote:I've had that idea, but there are a lot of things that require capital, like all the injection molding, and getting access to a lot of different sensors and surfaces for testing.

Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
Yes, that's possible, though not the preferred way to obtain sensor samples. May be easier to reprogram the mouse's microcontroller, if you only want 1.lexlazootin wrote:Pretty ignorant, but is it actually possible to unsolder the sensor and putting it on your own board/arduino? that would be pretty fucking incredible.Sparky wrote:I've had that idea, but there are a lot of things that require capital, like all the injection molding, and getting access to a lot of different sensors and surfaces for testing.

Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
was just trying a g302's buttons. they feel really nice; the actuation is really close to the top and there's no mushiness
and got my lowest ever average on humanbenchmark.

impressive. were you highly caffeinated? or in a deep meditative state?
Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
nope but i tried a few times to make sure i had none >170ms :p
anyway i think the "clickiness" of the mouse could affect our response time by maybe up to 10ms. simply because in some mice more physical movement is needed to click the button.
too bad the g302's shape is retarded

Re: Inherent click delay found in mice.
I was curious how accurate those web tests were, so I set the arduino up to measure reaction time(just had to hook up a LED and randomize it to light up after 1~5 seconds). Turns out my reaction time is garbage either way, median of about 250 on the web test, 205 on the arduino. Is reaction time something that improves with training, or is it more intrinsic?flood wrote:nope but i tried a few times to make sure i had none >170ms :p

I was going to get one, what mice do you use or like the shape of? palm or claw?flood wrote:too bad the g302's shape is retarded
