Answer

The different types of mouse are as follows:

  1. Mechanical Mouse — This type of mouse has a metal or rubber ball on its lower side that can roll in all the directions. The screen pointer moves according to the movement of the ball which is detected by the mechanical sensors within the mouse.
  2. Opto-Mechanical Mouse — This type of mouse uses a mechanism similar to the mechanical mouse. The only difference is that it uses optical sensors to detect the movement of the ball.
  3. Optical Mouse — An optical mouse does not have any mechanical moving parts. The laser technology is used to detect the movement of the mouse. It is more efficient and expensive than the Mechanical and Opto-Mechanical mouse.
