Ergonomic Design
Goldtouch designed this mouse with one thing in mind, putting
comfort and control at your ngertips.
There is no need to adapt to a radically new mouse orientation to
gain ergonomic benets. 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 patented, sloping design elevates the thumb and declines
at a 24 degree angle toward the little nger.
• 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.
• Design elements of the thumb area of the mouse are tailored to
greatly reduce stress on the thumb joints in response to increasing cases of RSI’s 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 ngers in a relaxed, non-exed
state.
• Oversized buttons provide the maximum surface area to evenly
distribute the work-force required for clicking.
Neutral hand posture, also known as the position of “repose” is the most
relaxed and unstrained position for the hand. In this position, little muscle
activity is present in the hand, wrist or forearm. The position of repose for the
hand is with ngers slightly cupped and splayed, with the thumb forming a
“C” shape with the index nger. The amount of pronation varies within individuals, but should be in the range of 10 to 45 degrees from the horizontal.
This position is easily observed in a weightless environment, for example,
while the hand is relaxed and suspended in a bath or swimming pool.
