"Presenter Mouse" compatible with Storyline?

All of them will work, the pointers generally are just a keyboard mapped the page up and page down. so add triggers to move to next slide on page up or page down.

As far as pointing the laser and clicking that will never work, it doesnt work in ppt.

Thanks Phil,

Good to know that the buttons on the presenters are just keyboard mappings and thus can be set using triggers. This will allow for  a huge improvement over sitting behind a desk&laptop to control the presentation.

Looking for even more flexibility - I understand that the laser beam can't by itself track the the location of the mouse-pointer, but isn't there anything else that could be done to somehow make the mouse-pointer move from a distance? (preferably by a laser pointer)

I'm thinking of an "air-mouse" or (no experience with them) interactive white boards that can pickup the laser beam.

I will google some more, but was just wondering if anybody here has had the same desire as I do to have complete control while sitting amongst the audience of the presentation/quiz/game/etc.  

Just now I found something that could do it (sort of http://vesine.en.alibaba.com/product/898240451-212256036/Cheap_wireless_presenter_laser_pointer_with_trackball_mouse.html

Thanks again Phil for the explanation of presenters just having a 2-button keyboard with pageup/pagedown mapped, it certainly helps to get things started!

Anyone who has experience with what I would like to achieve?

Update/conclusion:

.....today I used my old wireless mouse as a makeshift presenter: I mapped some keys to the side-buttons on my wireless optical mouse (using X-Mouse) and was able to control an entire presentation while walking around. (I was surprised that my cheap wireless mouse had a range beyond the size of the room! 

Eventually tho, I came to the conclusion that for best control and flexibility (and a laser-pointer) I will need to buy a wireless presenter with laser-pointer and trackball, air-mouse or optical finger navigation!

I realize this is an old post but am wondering what you are using these days, Rutwin? Or if anyone else has positive/negative experience to share? I need the same tool but am not having a lot of luck finding a reliable one when I search.

Thanks in advance!
