deskthority

When I use a laptop in a café, I almost always either set the laptop on my lap, or put it on the (too tall) table but pile a book or two under the far end.

That seems like a good temporary compromise between straining the neck and straining the arms.

When I stand or walk in a completely relaxed, neutral position, my palms don’t directly face towards each-other, but are rotated about 30–40°back. No noticeable wrist flexion. So the 30-50° "tent" which is comfortable for you keeps them in the same angle of pronation or slightly more pronation. If ...

* The TREWGrip has real keys so it is opaque but it has legends on the top mirroring the keys on the back. Each of these legends also light up when you press the corresponding key. ( TREWgrip on Youtube )

nice! I want one of ...

By “retroflection” (retroflexion?) do you mean the wrists bent upward? (If so, the typical term in keyboard ergonomics literature is “extension”.) Wrist extension during typing can be avoided on any keyboard by repositioning it relative to the body, and is mostly caused by poor technique among ...

mirrors? way too confusing. What I would love to see but have no idea how to create would be a shell type curvature that is transparent except that the letter you have configured for a certain area of the shell is shown there. It would essentially be a transparent touchpad that is also able to show ...

I want to design something that puts together the advantages of all of those plus solving the problem of strain due to retroflection in the wrist, and reducing impingement in the shoulder. I would like to try an extreme variation: a supination keyboard which allows you to type palms up. Try ...

What does PCB stand for? ( I'm a doc, you can ask me medical stuff )

Hey everyone! I would appreciate infos or ideas to summarise some of the comprehensive know-how from this forum so that a layman such as myself could experiment with different keyboard switches and shapes and share feedback about them on this forum. Here's what I'm looking for:

1) A plug and play ...

Hey everyone. I'm a doctor interested in using my anatomical knowledge towards reducing impingement and RSI due to keyboard and mouse usage. I'm new to this subject so I will express myself simply. Does someone know of a ready made kit for experimenting with keyboard shapes and layouts?

Here's what ...

Thanks for posting! I am looking for a programmable keyboard which also allows me to try custom keyboard shapes and then choose my keyboard layout key by key in an exisiting program.
It would have 30 cm insulated wires between the keys and the PCB so I could arrange them on a wooden frame or one ...
