The SafeType Ergo Keyboard is a Breakthrough in Keyboard Ergonomics!
NOW ONLY AVAILABLE IN BLACK
This revolutionary SafeType Keyboard is the only one that can place the user in a completely orthopedically neutral position while doing data entry and cannot be adjusted improperly by the user.
The result? The SafetypeTM is the only keyboard proven in a Major University Study to virtually eliminate the high-stress postures that contribute to Repetitive Stress Injuries, such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
In fact, it makes so much sense that once you see our section on "How it works", you will probably understand more about keyboard ergonomic than most keyboard designers! Take a look right now, and you will see why NASA and the Technology Utilization Foundation chose this design as a promising future technology.
How It Works?
- It doesn't just move the problem to another area of the body.
- It eliminates the 3 most damaging postures:
- Extension
- Deviation
- Pronation
Once you are accustomed to it, you will wonder how you ever used low-tech, ill-designed keyboards at all! Why not try one for yourself? You have a 90-day money-back guarantee, so all you have to lose is the risk of being disabled!
Cornell University Study:
Best ever tested, virtually eliminates stress.
The following graphs are from the study that was conducted at Cornell University's Human Factors Laboratory in Ithaca, New York during the months of July and August 1998.
-
Risk zone analysis - Flexion/extension and keyboards.
The following graph shows a comparison of the overall distribution of the flexion/extension movement risks zones for the conventional horizontal and vertical keyboards. Significant differences between the size of the zones for each keyboard are indicated by 'p' values on the graph. Results show that 71% of hand flexion/extension typing movements were in the lowest risk zone when using the vertical keyboard compared with only 44% when using a conventional keyboard.
-
Risk zone analysis - Radial/ulnar deviation and keyboards.
The following graph shows a comparison of the overall distribution of the radial/ulnar deviation movement risks zones for the conventional horizontal and vertical keyboards. Significant differences between the size of the zones for each keyboard are indicated by 'p' values on the graph. Results show that 78% of wrist radial/ulnar deviation typing movements were in the lowest risk zone when using the vertical keyboard compared with only 25% when using a conventional keyboard.
Use a Vertical Mouse with Your Vertical Keyboard
- Innovative vertical design keeps the arm in a comfortable, more neutral and natural "handshake" position
- Uses larger arm muscles to move mouse, reducing risk of discomfort.
- Clinically proven to reduce muscle strain and discomfort.
- Provents musculoskeletal discomfort through its unique design.
- Easy electronic scrolling function reduces scrolling to a single click (PC model only).
