In a paired click test, one auditory click sound will be presented, followed by a second click approximately 500 ms after the first one. The second sound is considered redundant, and so a typical control showing normal sensory gating will produce a reduced response (in wave amplitude ) to the second click.
The spinning pinwheel is a type of progress indicator and a variation of the mouse pointer used in Apple's macOS to indicate that an application is busy. [ 1 ] Officially, the macOS Human Interface Guidelines refer to it as the spinning wait cursor , [ 2 ] but it is also known by other names.

[1] [2] The design was first released with the iPod mini, and was last used with the iPod nano (5th Generation). The click wheel's design is credited to Apple's senior vice president of worldwide marketing, Phil ...
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
In speech recording, click noises (not to be confused with click consonants) result from tongue movements, swallowing, mouth and saliva noises. [8] While in voice-over recordings, click noises are undesirable, they can be used as a sound effect of close-miking in ASMR and pop music, e.g. in Bad Guy (2019) by Billie Eilish. [9]
In computing, a pointer or mouse pointer (as part of a personal computer WIMP style of interaction) [10] [11] [12] is a symbol or graphical image on the computer monitor or other display device that echoes movements of the pointing device, commonly a mouse, touchpad, or stylus pen. It signals the point where actions of the user take place.
In optics, chromatic aberration (CA), also called chromatic distortion, color aberration, color fringing, or purple fringing, is a failure of a lens to focus all colors to the same point. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is caused by dispersion : the refractive index of the lens elements varies with the wavelength of light .
A mouse click is the action of pressing (i.e. 'clicking', an onomatopoeia) a button to trigger an action, usually in the context of a graphical user interface (GUI). “Clicking” an onscreen button is accomplished by pressing on the real mouse button while the pointer is placed over the onscreen button's icon.
