Logitech NuLOOQ Navigator (965162-0403)

Product Description

It's not a mouse, but it could be your mouse´s best friend!

NuLOOQ navigator is an innovative stationary control device, about the size of a half a tennis ball but weighs in at a solid 1 lb.  Built into the device are a multi-dimensional ring, called the navring for simultaneous 360 degree pan and zoom and a touch sensitive circular disk, called the tooltuner for fine precision control.

Put your other hand to good use; NuLOOQ navigator gives you a powerful new way to interact with your application. Design, create, edit or just navigate — put the fun back on your desktop!  The NuLOOQ navigator boldly goes where no device has gone before:  to the other hand

  • Adjust brush size in one pixel increments in Adobe Photoshop CS2 without ever moving a slider or clicking on a shortcut key
  • Fine-tune font attributes such as leading, tracking and more in Adobe InDesign CS2 without using the option bar
  • Scroll and zoom your documents, spreadsheets, digital pictures or more with the smallest movement of the gray ring
  • Scrub timelines in Final Cut Pro or iMovie quickly or slowly
  • Change volume or music tracks in iTunes quickly while it runs in the background
  • And more…NuLOOQ navigator is user configurable for virtually any application
     
Precision Control
Adjust brush size in Photoshop, or text attributes in InDesign, timeline in video/audio apps or just control your system volume; make fine adjustments with a feather touch using the innovative touch sensitive circular disk.
  Two Finger Navigation
Gently nudge the gray ring forward, backwards, up, down, twist clockwise or counter clockwise to navigate around your digital picture, illustration, documents, spreadsheets or anything you can program.  Control, what, where and how fast to navigate with just two fingers!
  Quick Click to Commands
A simple click or tap and quickly execute your shortcut command.  Map undo and redo or access a tool, or play/pause or whatever you need right at your finger tips.
 
           
     
Application Intelligence
Use one of our configurations or build your own for virtually any application; NuLOOQ navigator is instantly configured for your current application.
  Advanced Technology
The unique integrated sensor with 1000 levels of resolution detects even the minutest motion in multiple directions simultaneously.  Move the ring a small amount to move slowly or move it all the way to get to where you want quickly.
  Solid Feel
From the first time you get your hand on a NuLOOQ, you´ll feel the difference.  A solid 1 lb in weight ensures the device stays still on the device.  Only slight movement is required for immediate reaction.

Customer Reviews

I'm very impressed with this product. Quality is top notch as noted by others.

I also wanted to address my original concern with someone's comment about top buttons (triggers) being loud and difficult to press: it's quite the opposite. While not touch-sensitive (capacitive), these surrounding buttons require low pressure to activate and emit a soft click. An interesting surprise was finding out that the middle button is a capacitive one.

I am using this product for Serato Scratch Live and it's perfect for my needs.

FYI, logitech has discontinued this product. They even pulled the drivers off the website. So - regarding some people's issues with usability with software packages (like having to continue to use CS2 while waiting for Nulooq to support CS3 for example) - if this product stops working with the next upgrade you will either have to 1.) not upgrade your software or 2.) stop using this device. So get this only if you plan on using compatible (old?) software for a while.

The problem with this navigator is that Logitech abandoned support and updates for OSX 10.5. So it will still work for zooming in and out of applications and scrolling but there's no software to customize applications to interact with the navigator.
I used it extensively for Photoshop in OSX 10.4 and it was very efficient to speedup my workflow. Too bad Logithech decided to strip this great tool of its functionality.

I needed to download newer software than came with the device because of a recent upgrade to OSX10.5. The device is either more limited than I thought it would be, or its real power remains hidden. I still can't get it to change my brush size in CS3, which is like the main thing it's touted as being able to do. It is, however, the BEST way to make one's way around Google Earth.

I like the idea of this product, but it has no support for the most recent Adobe products that I wanted to use it for, and I've not developed a habit of using it. So it's just a nice light effect for my office.
