Who was the inventor of “Mouse”?

  • (A) Douglas Engelbart
  • (B) Ada Lovelace
  • (C) Charles Babbage
  • (D) Latham Sholes
The first computer mouse was developed by Douglas Engelbart and his team at the Stanford Research Institute in 1963-64. The original mouse was a simple wooden box with two cross-mounted metal wheels that detected movement in the X and Y axes. It was patented in 1970 with the name “X-Y Position Indicator for a Display System,” but it was nicknamed the mouse because of the tail-like cord. Engelbart first demonstrated the mouse to the world in 1968 in a historic presentation known as “The Mother of All Demos.”
