Doug Engelbart invented the computer mouse in the early 1960s in his research lab at Stanford Research Institute (now SRI International). The first prototype – a one-button mouse in a wooden shell on wheels – was built in 1964 to test the concept.
道格·恩格尔巴特（Doug Engelbart）于1960年代初在斯坦福研究所（现为SRI国际）的研究实验室中发明了计算机鼠标。1964年，第一个原型机——一个装在带轮子的木壳中的一键鼠标——是为了测试这个概念而建造的。

Based on results of his landmark study on ‘Augmenting the Human Intellect,’ Engelbart had received modest funding to evaluate the speed and efficiency of various devices for pointing on a display screen, like the joy stick, including a few his team rigged up and threw into the mix, like the one they called a “mouse.” Which pointing device scored the highest? How was it built and tested? What inspired all this anyway? Read on! And don’t miss Check it Out below for original footage, photos, timelines, documents, fun facts, and more.
根据他关于“增强人类智力”的里程碑式研究的结果，恩格尔巴特获得了适度的资金，用于评估各种指向显示屏的设备的速度和效率，比如操纵杆，包括他的团队组装并投入其中的一些设备，比如他们称之为“鼠标”的设备。哪个指点设备得分最高？它是如何构建和测试的？究竟是什么激发了这一切？请继续阅读！不要错过下面的原始镜头、照片、时间线、文档、有趣的事实等。

A patent application for the mouse was filed in 1967, and US Patent 3,541,541 was awarded in 1970 under the descriptive title “X-Y position indicator for a display system.”
鼠标于1967年提交了专利申请，1970年以“显示系统的X-Y位置指示器”的描述性标题授予了美国专利3,541,541。

Although many impressive innovations for interacting with computers have followed in the last 50 years since its invention, the mouse remains to this day the most efficient hands on pointing device available for speed and accuracy.
尽管自发明以来的过去 50 年中，与计算机交互的创新令人印象深刻，但鼠标至今仍是可用于速度和准确性的最有效的手动指针设备。

The basic idea for the mouse first came to him in 1961 while sitting in a conference session on computer graphics, his mind mulling over the challenge of making interactive computing more efficient. It occurred to him that, using a pair of small wheels traversing a tabletop, one wheel turning horizontally, one turning vertically, the computer could track their combined rotations and move the cursor on the display accordingly. The wheels could function something like the wheels on a planimeter – a tool used by engineers and geographers to measure areas on a map, blueprint, drawing, etc. – but in this case, rolling the wheels around on the tabletop would plot the x,y coordinates for a cursor on a computer screen. He recorded the idea in his notebook for future reference.
1961年，当他参加一个关于计算机图形学的会议时，他第一次想到了鼠标的基本想法，当时他的脑海中正在考虑提高交互式计算效率的挑战。他突然想到，使用一对横穿桌面的小轮子，一个轮子水平转动，一个轮子垂直转动，计算机可以跟踪它们的组合旋转并相应地在显示器上移动光标。轮子的功能类似于平面仪上的轮子——工程师和地理学家用来测量地图、蓝图、绘图等区域的工具——但在这种情况下，在桌面上滚动轮子会在计算机屏幕上绘制光标的 x，y 坐标。他把这个想法记录在笔记本上，以备将来参考。

Since 1951 Doug had envisioned intellectual workers sitting at high-performance interactive display workstations, accessing a vast online information space in which to collaborate on important problems. When pondering the question of pointing devices in 1961, he was in the midst of an in-depth study of how teams and organizations might become much more effective in solving important problems. In 1962 he published his findings in “Augmenting Human Intellect: A Conceptual Framework,” which in 1963 garnered him some modest funding from ARPA to begin to hire a very small research team, and set up a basic lab with computer resources, teletypes, and finally, a display workstation.
自 1951 年以来，Doug 就设想了智力工作者坐在高性能交互式显示工作站上，访问广阔的在线信息空间，在其中就重要问题进行协作。1961 年，当他思考指向设备的问题时，他正在深入研究团队和组织如何更有效地解决重要问题。1962年，他在《增强人类智力：一个概念框架》上发表了他的研究成果，1963年，他从 ARPA 获得了一些适度的资金，开始雇用一个非常小的研究团队，并建立了一个拥有计算机资源、电传打字机的基础实验室，最后是一个显示工作站。

By now there were several off-the-shelf solutions for moving a cursor and selecting something on a display screen, but no good data about which would be most efficient to meet Engelbart’s “high-performance” requirement. He applied for and was awarded a small grant from NASA to explore that question.
到目前为止，已经有几种现成的解决方案可以移动光标和在显示屏上选择某些内容，但是没有关于哪种解决方案最有效地满足 Engelbart 的“高性能”要求的良好数据。他申请并获得了美国宇航局的一小笔资助，以探索这个问题。

The first mouse prototype

Doug and team rounded up then best-of-breed pointing devices to evaluate, and rigged up some in-house devices to add to the mix as well, such as a knee-operated device (see Mouse Alternatives below). He also reviewed his earlier notes with lead engineer Bill English, who built a prototype of the hand-held device with perpendicular wheels mounted in a carved out wooden block, with a button on top, to test with the others. This was the first mouse (pictured left and below). Watch Doug and Bill (above right) discussing this study and the first mouse.
Doug 和团队收集了当时最好的指点设备进行评估，并组装了一些内部设备以添加到组合中，例如膝关节操作设备（请参阅下面的鼠标替代品）。他还与首席工程师比尔·英格利奇（Bill English）一起回顾了他早期的笔记，后者构建了手持设备的原型，垂直轮子安装在雕刻的木块中，顶部有一个按钮，可以与其他设备一起测试。这是第一只鼠标（左图和下图）。观看 Doug 和 Bill（右上）讨论这项研究和第一只小鼠。

In 1965 Engelbart’s team published the final report of their study evaluating the efficiency of the various screen-selection techniques. They had pitted the mouse against a handful of other devices, some off the shelf, some of their own making (see Mouse Alternatives below). The mouse won hands down, and was thus included as standard equipment in their research moving forward (see Screen-Selection Experiments below for links to key reports and papers detailing these experiments). In 1967, SRI filed for the patent on the mouse, under the more formal name of “x,y position indicator for a display system,” and the patent was awarded in 1970.
1965年，恩格尔巴特的团队发表了他们研究的最终报告，评估了各种屏幕选择技术的效率。他们让鼠标与一些其他设备进行了对比，有些是现成的，有些是他们自己制造的（见下面的鼠标替代品）。鼠标赢得了胜利，因此被列为他们研究的标准设备（有关详细介绍这些实验的关键报告和论文的链接，请参阅下面的屏幕选择实验）。1967 年，SRI 以更正式的名称“显示系统的 x，y 位置指示器”申请了鼠标专利，该专利于 1970 年授予。

The first mouse plugged into it’s display workstation - circa 1964

Enter, the Keyset: To further increase efficiency, Engelbart’s team thought to offer a companion to the mouse – a device for the left hand to enter commands or text while the right hand was busy pointing and clicking (shown above). After trying out several variations, they settled on a telegraph-style “keyset” with five piano-like keys. This keyset also became standard equipment in the lab (pictured below). Both devices were introduced to the public in Engelbart’s 1968 demonstration, now known as the “Mother of All Demos” (see Check It Out below for links to selected video footage of the debut, historic photos, and more).
输入，键集：为了进一步提高效率，Engelbart的团队考虑为鼠标提供一个伴侣 - 一种让左手输入命令或文本的设备，而右手则忙于指向和点击（如上图所示）。在尝试了几种变体后，他们决定使用带有五个类似钢琴的键盘的电报式“键组”。该按键也成为实验室的标准设备（如下图所示）。这两款设备都是在 Engelbart 1968 年的演示中向公众介绍的，现在被称为“所有演示之母”（请参阅下面的“查看”，了解首次亮相的精选视频片段、历史照片等的链接）。

1968 version includes three-button mouse and five-key keyset](http://dougengelbart.org/images/pix/img0030.jpg) (click to enlarge)

The mouse we built for the [1968] show was an early prototype that had three buttons. We turned it around so the tail came out the top. We started with it going the other direction, but the cord got tangled when you moved your arm.
我们为 [1968] 展会制作的鼠标是一个早期的原型，有三个按钮。我们把它转过来，让尾巴露出来。我们从另一个方向开始，但当你移动手臂时，绳子就缠住了。

I first started making notes for the mouse in '61. At the time, the popular device for pointing on the screen was a light pen, which had come out of the radar program during the war. It was the standard way to navigate, but I didn’t think it was quite right.
我第一次开始为鼠标做笔记是在 61 年。当时，在屏幕上指向的流行设备是一支光笔，它是在战争期间从雷达程序中出来的。这是标准的导航方式，但我认为这并不完全正确。

Two or three years later, we tested all the pointing gadgets available to see which was the best. Aside from the light pen there was the tracking ball and a slider on a pivot. I also wanted to try this mouse idea, so Bill English went off and built it.
两三年后，我们测试了所有可用的指针小工具，看看哪个是最好的。除了光笔之外，还有跟踪球和枢轴上的滑块。我也想尝试这个鼠标的想法，所以比尔·英格利斯（Bill English）开始建造它。

We set up our experiments and the mouse won in every category, even though it had never been used before. It was faster, and with it people made fewer mistakes. Five or six of us were involved in these tests, but no one can remember who started calling it a mouse. I’m surprised the name stuck.
我们设置了实验，鼠标在每个类别中都获胜，尽管它以前从未使用过。它更快，人们犯的错误更少。我们当中有五六个人参与了这些测试，但没人记得是谁开始称它为鼠标。我很惊讶这个名字卡住了。

We also did a lot of experiments to see how many buttons the mouse should have. We tried as many as five. We settled on three. That’s all we could fit. Now the three-button mouse has become standard, except for the Mac.
我们还做了很多实验，看看鼠标应该有多少个按钮。我们尝试了多达五次。我们选择了三个。这就是我们所能适应的。现在三键鼠标已成为标准配置，Mac除外。

Engelbart and his team tested a half dozen pointing devices for speed and accuracy. These included the mouse, and a knee apparatus (pictured below, right), both created in-house, along with several off the shelf devices such as DEC’s Grafacon (pictured below, center, modified for testing purposes), a joy stick, and a light pen. See Screen-Selection Experiments below for links to more details and photos. They also experimented with a foot pedal device as well as a head mounted device, neither of which made it into the final tests.
Engelbart和他的团队测试了六种指针设备的速度和准确性。其中包括鼠标和膝关节装置（如下图右图所示），两者都是在内部创建的，以及一些现成的设备，例如DEC的Grafacon（如下图所示，中间，为测试目的而修改），操纵杆和一支光笔。请参阅下面的屏幕选择实验，了解更多详细信息和照片的链接。他们还试验了脚踏板装置和头戴式装置，但都没有进入最终测试。

In the 1950s, Doug Engelbart set his sights on a lofty goal – to develop dramatically better ways to support intellectual workers around the globe in the daunting task of finding solutions to larger and larger problems with greater speed and effectiveness than ever before imagined. His goal was to revolutionize the way we work together on such tasks. He saw computers, at the time used primarily for number crunching, as a new medium for advancing the state of the art in collaborative knowledge work. Building on technology available at the time, his research agenda required that his team push the envelope on all fronts: they had to expand the boundaries of display technology and interactive computing and human-computer interface, help launch network computing, and invent hypermedia, groupware, knowledge management, digital libraries, computer supported software engineering, client-server architecture, the mouse, etc. on the technical front, as well as pushing the frontiers in process reengineering and continuous improvement, including inventing entirely new organizational concepts and methodologies on the human front. Engelbart even invented his own innovation strategy for accelerating the rate and scale of innovation in his lab which, by the way, proved very effective. His seminal work garnered many awards, and sparked a revolution that blossomed into the Information Age and the Internet. But as yet we have only scratched the surface of the true potential Engelbart envisioned for dramatically boosting our collective IQ in the service of humankind's greatest challenges.
在1950年代，道格·恩格尔巴特（Doug Engelbart）将目光投向了一个崇高的目标——开发更好的方法，以支持全球的智力工作者完成艰巨的任务，即以比以往任何时候都更快的速度和效率为越来越大的问题找到解决方案。他的目标是彻底改变我们在此类任务上的合作方式。他认为当时主要用于数字运算的计算机是推动协作知识工作最新技术水平的新媒介。在当时可用的技术基础上，他的研究议程要求他的团队在各个方面突破极限：他们必须扩大显示技术、交互式计算和人机界面的界限，帮助启动网络计算，并在技术方面发明超媒体、群件、知识管理、数字图书馆、计算机支持的软件工程、客户端-服务器架构、鼠标等， 以及推动流程再造和持续改进的前沿，包括在人性化方面发明全新的组织概念和方法。恩格尔巴特甚至发明了自己的创新策略，以加快实验室的创新速度和规模，顺便说一句，事实证明，这非常有效。他的开创性工作获得了许多奖项，并引发了一场革命，这场革命在信息时代和互联网中蓬勃发展。但到目前为止，我们只是触及了恩格尔巴特所设想的真正潜力的表面，即在为人类最大的挑战服务时，大大提高我们的集体智商。

Doug’s Early Vision:
From the introduction of his Augmenting human intellect: A conceptual framework (1962):

Let us consider an augmented architect at work. He sits at a working station that has a visual display screen some three feet on a side; this is his working surface, and is controlled by a computer (his “clerk”) with which he can communicate by means of a small keyboard and various other devices.
让我们考虑一个增强的架构师在工作。他坐在一个工作站上，该工作站的边长约三英尺处有一个视觉显示屏;这是他的工作台面，由一台计算机（他的“文员”）控制，他可以通过小键盘和各种其他设备进行通信。

He is designing a building. He has already dreamed up several basic layouts and structural forms, and is trying them out on the screen. The surveying data for the layout he is working on now have already been entered, and he has just coaxed the clerk to show him a perspective view of the steep hillside building site with the roadway above, symbolic representations of the various trees that are to remain on the lot, and the service tie points for the different utilities. The view occupies the left two-thirds of the screen. With a pointer he indicates two points of interest, moves his left hand rapidly over the keyboard, and the distance and elevation between the points indicated appear on the right-hand third of the screen.
他正在设计一栋建筑。他已经构思了几种基本的布局和结构形式，并正在屏幕上尝试它们。他现在正在处理的布局的测量数据已经输入，他刚刚哄骗店员向他展示了陡峭的山坡建筑工地的透视图，上面有道路，将保留在地块上的各种树木的象征性表示，以及不同公用设施的服务连接点。视图占据了屏幕的左三分之二。他用指针指示两个兴趣点，左手在键盘上快速移动，指示点之间的距离和高度出现在屏幕的右侧三分之一处。

Doug Engelbart, 1962 [Source]

From As We May Think by Vannevar Bush, 1945 (quoted by Engelbart in Augmenting Human Intellect):

"Consider a future device for individual use, which is a sort of mechanized private file and library. It needs a name, and to coin one at random, “memex” will do. A memex is a device in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory.
“考虑一个未来供个人使用的设备，这是一种机械化的私人文件和库。它需要一个名字，随机创造一个，“memex”就可以了。memex 是一种设备，个人可以在其中存储他所有的书籍、记录和通信，并且它是机械化的，因此可以以超快的速度和灵活性进行查阅。这是对他记忆的扩大的亲密补充。

"It consists of a desk, and while it can presumably be operated from a distance, it is primarily the piece of furniture at which he works. On the top are slanting translucent screens, on which material can be projected for convenient reading. There is a keyboard, and sets of buttons and levers. Otherwise it looks like an ordinary desk.
“它由一张桌子组成，虽然它可以从远处操作，但它主要是他工作的家具。顶部是倾斜的半透明屏幕，可以在上面投影材料以方便阅读。有一个键盘，以及一组按钮和杠杆。否则，它看起来像一张普通的桌子。

In the early 1970s, the mouse migrated from Doug’s lab at SRI to Xerox PARC (along with some of his team), and later to Apple when Steve Jobs visited Xerox PARC, and beyond. One of the most common myths about the mouse is the mistaken belief that it was invented at Xerox PARC. Note that the first mouse was built in 1964, the patent for the mouse was filed in 1967, and demonstrated to an audience of over a thousand in 1968, by which time production models were in operational use throughout Doug’s lab. Xerox PARC did not exist until 1970.
在 1970 年代初期，鼠标从 Doug 在 SRI 的实验室迁移到 Xerox PARC（和他的一些团队），后来当史蒂夫·乔布斯访问施乐 PARC 时，鼠标迁移到了苹果，等等。关于鼠标最常见的神话之一是错误地认为它是在施乐 PARC 发明的。请注意，第一只鼠标是在 1964 年制造的，鼠标的专利是在 1967 年提交的，并于 1968 年向一千多名观众演示，当时生产模型已在整个 Doug 的实验室中投入使用。施乐 PARC 直到 1970 年才存在。
