Trip replaced the internals of a 1K mouse with a Teensy 4.0 for 8 times faster updates!

A 4K gaming mouse doesn’t mean it has four times as many pixels as a 1080p display — but rather that it polls at 4000Hz, meaning my movements are sent to the connected PC 4000 times per second. And just like TVs, 8K mice are already starting to be seen in the market.

Paired with a Pixart PMW3360DM-T2QU image sensor, which captures images at a rate of up to 12000 fps, the integrated Teensy transmits movement up to 8000 times per second over a shortened USB cable, in order to optimize transmission. More information can be found on the project’s GitHub page.
