Some computer application software require the use of a mouse for positioning and selection.  If a user can operate push buttons but lacks the dexterity to operate a mouse, this emulator may help.  It has 7 push buttons.  4 of these are for directional control and the other three duplicates the function of the three mouse buttons.

A switch assembly with 7 pad switches is available for users with poor motor control.  It has separators between switches to avoid simultaneous depression of more than one switch.
