Douglas Engelbart invented the computer mouse and demonstrated various innovative technologies at "the mother of all demos" in 1968, including windows, email, and live network videoconferencing. Vannevar Bush was a pioneer in computer science and engineering but did not invent the mouse or demonstrate these technologies. Al Gore and Alan Kay also made important contributions to computer science, but they were not involved in the development of the mouse or the specific technologies demonstrated at the 1968 demo. Ted Nelson coined the term "hypertext," but he did not invent the mouse or demonstrate these technologies.
