Ergonomics. What is Ergonomics ? It is... fitting the work to the worker Ergon = Greek for “work” Nomos = Greek for “laws of” The Study of Work Applies.

Ergonomics is the study of the kind of work you do, the environment you work in, and the tools you use to do your job. The goal of office ergonomics is.

Awkward posture refers to positions of the body that deviate significantly from the neutral position while performing work activities. When you are in.

What Ergonomics says about computer keyboards: No Extension No Deviation No Pronation No Abduction No falling neck & shoulders

Facilitation of such correct, natural & neutral posture requires:  Specific Input Device Design  and Hand Supports.

How YogiType™ facilitates the best body posture!

YogiType™ The next generation keyboard  The best & most complete ergonomics  Design - very appealing & practical at the same time  Increased typing efficiency. Reduced fatique  Fast adaptation - Least learning time

YogiType™ : Benefits  Allows & facilitates the posture closest to natural body posture while working  Relaxed body and mind – more focus, higher efficiency,  Comfort - reduced muscle load  Less fatigue buildup - work longer  Muscles work only while hitting a key. Less force required to hit.  Muscles do not have to hold the posture  Better breathing and blood flow  Joints remain in neutral position

Relevance to fast typing A person develops fast typing speed with natural ability, skill, technique and practice. Maintaining the speed is a challenge. Stress and strain developed in fast typing accumulates with time and speed lowers with time. With Maarshan KB stress and strain in any kind of typing is much lower. (See research statistics) Hence, one can not only maintain good posture but, also typing speed for a much longer time.

No more problems in work that you cannot avoid!

Ready prototypes for testing, evaluation & trials

Comparative test & research conventional keyboard & YogiType™

Average scores for muscle activity for 8 muscles comparing the YogiType™ with a conventional horizontal keyboard. M1 tot M8 refer to the average normalized activity of respectivily : M. Flexor Digitorum Superficialis, M. Extensor Digitorum, M. Flexor Carpi Radialis, M. Flexor Carpi Ulnaris, M. Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus, M. Extensor Carpi Ulnaris, M. Biceps, and M. Trapezius. 4 muscles show significant difference.
