Benefits and Features
Switchable high resolution performance
Utilising the latest in laser navigation technology, the L-Trac has selectable resolutions of up to 1600 cpi, which are “button selectable”, allowing rapid changes of sensitivity. The high performance laser navigation system is capable of tracking at greater than 30 inches per second, even at a 20G acceleration rate. This means the user can “fly” around the screen with a flick of the finger or snap from one side the screen to the other with a healthy flick of the arm. Either way, this precision, high performance pointing device produces predictable, quick and precise motion that becomes intuitive in a few minutes of use.
The NEW L-TracX Laser Trackball even flies faster. At the maximum resolution of 3200 cpi, this trackball is perfect for the modern high definition displays for personal, business and gaming use. The L-TracX has three buttons as normal, which can be expanded up to five via the two external switch jacks on the back. With a 1000 Hz polling rate at 3200 cpi precision and speed are no problem.
This performance coupled with the natural contour of the L-Trac makes these trackballs Clearly Superior for all applications including general computing, gaming and Computer Aided Design (CAD). CAD users love it because you can drag a line one pixel even on today’s high resolution displays of 1920 × 1080. Then, with a button stroke, they can fly around the screen to get general tasks done. Game players have called it an “Almost unfair advantage”, citing the fingertip control and precision, high performance tracking. Awesome for first person shooter PC gaming!
Scroll Wheel and External Switch Options
The optional scroll wheel is smooth and readily accessible, located above the centre button. Also an option, the L-Trac can be switch-adapted and fitted with 3 switch jacks allowing the use of 3 external switches by special needs and inclusion students. See Kid-Trac Trackball – Switch Adapted.
The L-TracX features two built-in switch jacks so you can connect external switches and locate them wherever you need.
Custom Button Control Software
Superior-X Button Control software (included, for Windows only), allows the user to set different button settings depending on the application. This allows control of applications, such as media players, directly from the trackball (volume control via scroll wheel, etc.), putting maximum control at your fingertips. Superior-X also allows keystrokes to be recorded and played back with the click of a button, allowing repetitive application tasks to be completed quickly.
Reliability
The combination of Superior-X Button Control and the L-Trac offers unparalleled flexibility, performance and reliability. Designed to minimise the effects of contamination build up and the resultant degradation of performance, this high performance laser trackball uses highly polished stainless steel rollers. It has been found by CST that the “ruby ball sliders” used in most optical trackballs, cause performance degradation when “gunk” builds up on them. This can be annoying when playing games on-line (or anytime). The “mirror polished” stainless steel rollers do not readily collect “gunk” and are easily cleared by spinning the ball rapidly. The DuPont Delrin bearings are embedded with Teflon and internally coated with a lifetime lubricant making the feel of this trackball extremely smooth and its reliability very robust. The stainless steel rollers are extremely tough and give a super smooth feel. Life testing indicates that this unit may outlive most users. It, most probably, will be the last pointing device you will ever need to buy.
Comfortable for left or right handed users
The shape of the L-Trac acts as a natural hand rest mirroring the natural contour of your hand. Designed to easily accommodate either right, or left handed users and different size hands. No need to move you arm to rotate your wrist from side to side.
Green!
The L-Trac and L-TracX are lead free, meet all known environmental requirements and are produced using “green” methods. Packaging is kept to a minimum and is 100 percent recyclable.
Flexibility, reliability and performance! Made in the United States of America by Americans.
