The computer pointer originated in the 1960s with Douglas Engelbart’s invention of the mouse. It became a core part of graphical user interfaces in the 1980s with Xerox PARC, later adopted by Apple and Microsoft. From bitmap cursors to modern pixel precision, the pointer has quietly shaped how humans interact with machines — directing attention, triggering action, and defining control in the digital age. POINTER TEK honors that legacy.
