A trackball is a pointing device that consists of a ball held in a socket with sensors that detect the ball’s rotation around two axes, similar to an upside-down ball mouse with a ball that is exposed and protrudes.
Using their thumb, fingers, or the palm of their hand, users roll the ball to position the on-screen pointer, pressing the buttons with their fingertips.
Trackballs are generally either thumb-operated, with a ball about an inch in diameter or smaller moved by one digit (almost always the thumb) and the buttons clicked by others, or finger-operated, with a ball over two inches in diameter operated by the middle fingers and the buttons by the thumb and little finger.
To continue rolling with most trackballs, users must lift their finger, thumb, or hand and reposition themselves on the ball, whereas a mouse must be lifted and repositioned.
Because they are made of dense materials like phenolic resin and have a low coefficient of friction, some trackballs can be spun to coast.
The buttons on the trackball may be arranged in a manner that is comparable to that of a mouse or customized to the user’s preferences.

They resemble an inverted mouse and feature a pointing ball that is rotated with the thumb, fingers, or palm of the hand. Unlike mice, trackballs remain stationary and do not require much space.
There are a few primary configurations for the trackball. Desktop devices can be used on a tabletop or benchtop because they are enclosed or encased.
Handheld and smaller than usual trackballs are likewise accessible. Products with a keyboard mount attach to a computer’s keyboard.
Products that are panel-mounted include an adapter plate or flat frame that fits over the top or front of an instrumentation or equipment panel.
An enclosure, case, or front-panel adapter plate are not included in original equipment manufacturer (OEM) kits. Instead, these trackballs have a controller, a printed circuit board (PCB), a silicone rubber overlay, and a connecting cable.
