The ergonomic design of the NEW Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse supports the hand in a naturally sloping angle that places the wrist in a neutral position. It uses a moderate 24 degree slope angle specified by ergonomists and health safety professionals to reduce wrist pronation; this helps alleviate Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI) such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
Available for right AND left hand.There is no need to adapt to a radically new mouse orientation to gain ergonomic benefits. Unlike mice and joysticks that require a completely vertical orientation of the hand, the Goldtouch Ergonomic mouse positions the hand and wrist in a naturally sloping angle. The user is immediately oriented to the shape and angle of the mouse, and is therefore, immediately productive.
DIMENSIONS:
SUPPORTED PLATFORMS: The Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse supports Windows PC, MAC, various flavors of LINUX and UNIX without requiring 3rd party drivers. 3 buttons support left and right click with center wheel click to activate scroll function on PC and middle click on LINUX/UNIX. 1 to 3 button support for MAC as supported by the OS version.
Design elements of the thumb-side of the mouse are tailored to greatly reduce stress on the thumb joints in response to increasing cases of RSI related to improper and overuse of the thumb while texting and emailing from mobile phones, Blackberrys and PDA’s.
Design elements of the front of the mouse are tailored to support the natural curvature of the fingers in a relaxed state.
Design elements of the top of the mouse are tailored to support the hand, wrist, and forearm in a natural position, minimizing pronation and supporting the hand in natural, at-rest position.
