Cyberhand Technologies Intnl., a computer peripheral design company specializing in wireless ergonomic products for mobile and desktop users, has entered into a research project with Lockheed Martin Corp. to develop a missile guidance hardware system based on the combined technologies of Cyberhand's Viper(tm) high-performance game controller and the Racer(tm) ergonomic mouse.

“Originally, approached over two years ago, Cyberhand is able to proceed with this research project to develop the world's most responsive missile guidance hardware system for Lockheed Martin,” said Mike Burke, president of Cyberhand Technologies. “Not only will this relationship open the doors to the demanding and exacting world of military hardware systems, but it will allow Cyberhand to use technology developed for this industry and apply it to its existing game controller and ergonomic computer mouse product lines.”
