When Mario Marusic lost function in all four limbs after an accident, he thought his DJ career was over, to say the least.
“With the IntegraMouse AIR, I got my freedom back — and my music,” he said.
This device allows users to control their computers entirely with their mouths — sipping to left-click, puffing to right-click and moving the mouthpiece with their lips to drag the cursor or scroll. It can replace a joystick in gaming as well.
Thanks to this device, Mario is not only back on stage playing music; he’s also gaming and socializing, in addition to consulting and conducting research and development for the IntegraTools team.
“I mix cool sounds, surf the internet, chat with friends and play computer games,” he said. “This gives me a great deal of independence.”
With Bluetooth pairability, the IntegraMouse AIR can connect with up to four devices simultaneously. (You can switch between them quickly and easily with the lip button.) It’s fully compatible with Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android and Linux devices. It also has an app that allows users to tailor settings to their needs.

Wow, what an inspiring post about the sip and puff technology! It makes such a difference for individuals seeking independence. I’m curious, how do you think this tech can evolve with new gamified approaches like strands hint today? Could games really enhance the user experience? Thanks for sharing these insights!
