English: Diagram of a mechanical mouse. Pulling the mouse turns the ball. X and Y rollers grip the ball and transfer movement. Optical encoding disks include light holes. Infrared LEDs shine through the disks. Sensors gather light pulses to convert to X and Y velocities.
The scroll wheel on a mouse has been invented multiple times by different people unaware of the others' work. Other scrolling controls on a mouse, and the use of a wheel for scrolling both precede the combination of wheel and mouse. The earliest known example of the former is the Mighty Mouse prototype developed jointly by NTT, Japan and ETH Zürich, Switzer

Scrolling may take place in discrete increments (perhaps one or a few lines of text at a time), or continuously (smooth scrolling). Frame rate is the speed at which an entire image is redisplayed. It is related to scrolling in that changes to text and image position can only happen as often as the image can be redisplayed.
An early Xerox optical mouse chip, before the development of the inverted packaging design of Williams and Cherry. The first two optical mice, first demonstrated by two independent inventors in December 1980, had different basic designs: [1] [2] [3] One of these, invented by Steve Kirsch of MIT and Mouse Systems Corporation, [4] [5] used an infrared LED and a four-quadrant infrared sensor to ...
