How does an Apple Magic Mouse work?

The Apple Magic Mouse works by using a combination of capacitive sensors and gesture software. The capacitive sensors on the top surface of the mouse can detect the presence of your fingers, and the gesture software interprets your finger movements to perform different actions.

For example, if you drag your finger across the surface of the mouse, the gesture software will interpret this as a scroll gesture. If you tap the surface of the mouse with one finger, the gesture software will interpret this as a click gesture. And if you pinch your fingers together or spread them apart on the surface of the mouse, the gesture software will interpret this as a zoom gesture.

The Magic Mouse also uses inertia scrolling, which means that it will continue to scroll for a short period of time after you lift your finger from the surface of the mouse. This can be useful for scrolling through long documents or web pages.
