Few people know who invented such a convenient mouse. What is the original name of the mouse? How did the current name come from?
As early as 195 1 year, a man named Engelbas retired from the US Navy and worked as an engineer for NASA. He always imagines how computers communicate with people, how to display, organize, guide and record information.
1963, Engelbarth established the Development Research Center in Stanford Research Institute. He first made the most primitive mouse out of wood and a small iron wheel. In 1970s, Xerox constantly improved Engelbass's invention. It was not until 1983 1 month that the "Lisa" personal computer launched by Apple Computer Company was equipped with a mouse for the first time.
On the patent certificate, the official name of the mouse is "display system vertical and horizontal position indicator". But I don't know who called it "mouse", and the name soon spread. Until now, no one knows how the name "mouse" came from. This will be a "historical mystery". Maybe he looks like a little mouse, so he got the name!
