Abstract
A device and method for a wireless mouse to detect the battery status of a host computer are proposed. A low-battery monitor mode of a battery is activated. Whether the battery has a low-battery status is determined. A notification message of the low-battery status is intercepted. The notification message is sent to a receiving unit of the wireless mouse by means of wireless transmission. The device has a battery module for providing power for the host computer, a battery capacity detection module electrically connected to the battery module for detecting its capacity, a transfer unit electrically connected to the battery capacity detection module for transferring the present battery status of the host computer, a receiving unit for receiving signals from the transfer unit, and a wireless mouse display unit electrically connected to the receiving unit for displaying the present battery capacity status of the host computer.
