“user-friendly.”

Douglas Engelbart and his colleagues at the Stan-
ford Research Institute were pioneers in the field of
“human - computer interaction.” In 1964, they built a
hand-held pointing device to manipulate images and
text on a monitor’s screen. The prototype was a
simple wooden box with two perpendicular metal
wheels, a selection button, and a wire connection to
the processor. Engelbart’s “mouse” was subse-
quently refined by researchers at Xerox PARC and
made popular with the release of the Apple Macin-
tosh in 1984. Engelbart later noted, “It just looked
like a mouse with a tail, and we called it that.” To make it more desirable, it turns into a wireless
charging phone stand. Did I also mention it has a
1W LED light to brighten up you day. The Survival
kit will easily fit into your wallet, purse, laptop bag or
URBAN SURVIVAL CARD backpack and keep you organized.
