Abstract
A pneumatically actuated computer input device comprises an input device circuit member having a hollow body, at least one switch member within the hollow body adapted to send electronic signals to a computer terminal, and a pneumatic actuator within the hollow body adapted to be inflated and press against and activate the at least one switch member. A pneumatic hose connected at a distal end to the pneumatic actuator and extending outward from the hollow body at a predetermined length and adapted to supply air thereto, and a foot pedal connected to the pneumatic hose at an opposite end from the distal end and adapted to control the air supply through the pneumatic hose and to the pneumatic actuator, such that when the foot pedal is pressed the pneumatic actuator is filled with air, expands, and presses against the at least one switch member which then sends an electronic signal to the computer terminal.
