Building a Better Mouse [Trap] the Student Innovation Contest

David Lakatos Snail Interface
OK, it's not really a better mouse trap.... but it is a better mouse. Winners of the third annual 2011 UIST Student Innovation Contest (SIC) have been announced. Student teams were given a new Microsoft TouchMouse and provided with a pre-release of the TouchMouse API. The goal of the contest was to design new interactions using this state-of-the-art hardware. For more on the contest and all the winners.
