The Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse (also known as the Goldtouch Comfort Mouse) from Key Ovation tilts the hand outward by 24°, elevating the thumb higher than the little finger. This position generates a lower level of strain on the tissues and joints of the arm, wrist and fingers than the familiar "palm down" position. The Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse features a non-slip concave well for the thumb and oversized curved buttons combined in a rounded design that provides comfort and support for the whole hand.

Corded models of the Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse are available for both left and right hands; Bluetooth (4.0) models (with or without Receiver Dongles) are only available for the right hand.

Note: Those whose computers are not Bluetooth-compatible by default (i.e. the majority of Windows desktop computers) should order a Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse with Bluetooth Receiver Dongle included (KOV-GTM-BTD). For computers with built-in Bluetooth connectivity the Bluetooth version of the Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse (KOV-GTM-B) should be ordered.

The Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse will accommodate hand sizes up to 7.25" in length. See the Measuring Guide for how to measure.

La Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse (aussi connu avec le nom Goldtouch Comfort Mouse) incline la main de 24°, de sorte que le pouce soit plus haut que le petit doigt. Cette position offre moin de pression sur les muscles et jointures du bras, poignet et main que la position connu de "paume vers le bas/palm down". Les caractéristics de la souris sont une courbe concave pour le pouce caoutchouté et des boutons plus grands courbés qui fournit le confort et support de toute la main.

Un modèle du Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse est disponible avec fil pour gauche et droite; le modèle Bluetooth (avec et sans la clé USB) sont seulement disponible pour la main droite.

Veuillez noter: Utilisateurs avec ordinateurs qui ne sont pas compatible avec Bluetooth par défault (telque la majorité des ordinateurs de bureau Windows) devrait commander le Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse qui inclus la clé USB Bluetooth (KOV-GTM-BTD). Utilisateurs avec ordinateurs avec connections Bluetooth intégré peuvent commander la version Bluetooth du Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse. (KOV-GTM-B)

The HandshoeMouse SHIFT from Hippus NV combines the anatomically-derived ergonomics of the original HandshoeMouse with an enhanced convertible ambidextrous design. This highly functional ergonomic design addresses the 3 most common issues associated with the use of a computer mouse - gripping, pinching, and tensing of the fingers. Naturally supportive contours permit the hand and fingers to completely relax whether actively engaged with the mouse or just resting between movements. This relaxed position eliminates the sustained static tension commonly maintained when using a mouse, and associated with the development of RSI. With its convertible ambidextrous design and three size options, virtually anyone can receive full support of the hand, wrist and fingers while actively mousing, whether right- or left-handed. Two low force light click buttons and a scroll wheel (clickable for middle click) provide standard "Plug-and-Play" functions. For convenience the HandshoeMouse SHIFT offers both Bluetooth wireless (powered by a rechargeable internal battery) and corded functionality.
Note: For bluetooth connection the computer must have integrated bluetooth connectivity or be equipped with an external bluetooth receiver.

The HandshoeMouse SHIFT does not require any passive muscle tension or use, and discourages excessive muscle exertion while actively using the mouse, making it the only mouse on the market that is almost impossible to use incorrectly. The waterfall design of the HandshoeMouse SHIFT provides a naturally curved resting support for the fingers, allowing them to fully relax between clicks. This eliminates the negative effects from an anticipation of the click which on traditional mice results in raised, hovering fingers as well as overexertion and overextension of the extensor muscles. The design also incorporates a thumb rest which supports the thumb in a neutral and relaxed fashion making the HandshoeMouse a good option for those experiencing thumb-related issues such as DeQuervain’s Tenosynovitus. The recommended usage for this mouse is on the desk surface with the forearm fully supported by the desk or an arm rest.

Due to the greater amount of weight resting on a HandshoeMouse (larger mouse, weight of hand and part of forearm) it is recommended that a firm, low friction mousing surface be used to minimize resistance to movement.

La HandshoeMouse SHIFT de Hippus NV combine l'ergonomie anatomique de la HandshoeMouse originale avec une conception augmentée; ambidextre convertible. Cette conception ergonomique hautement fonctionnelle répond aux trois problèmes les plus courants associés à l'utilisation d'une souris d'ordinateur : le saisir fortement (gripping), le pincer légèrement (pinching), et la tension dans les doigts. Les contours de soutien naturels permettent à la main et aux doigts de se détendre complètement, qu'ils soient en train d'utiliser la souris ou qu'ils se reposent entre les mouvements. Cette position détendue élimine la tension statique soutenue et généralement maintenue lors de l'utilisation d'une souris, et associée au développement des RSI. Grâce à sa conception ambidextre convertible et à ses trois options de taille, pratiquement tout le monde peut bénéficier d'un soutien complet de la main, du poignet et des doigts lors de l'utilisation active de la souris, que l'on soit droitier ou gaucher. Deux boutons de clics légers à force bas et une roulette de défilement (cliquable pour le clic du milieu) fournissent des fonctions standard "Plug-and-Play". La HandshoeMouse SHIFT offre les deux fonctionnalités sans fil Bluetooth (alimentée par une batterie interne rechargeable) aussi qu`avec fil. Veuillez noter: Pour une connexion Bluetooth, l'ordinateur doit avoir d'une connectivité Bluetooth intégrée ou être équipé d'un récepteur Bluetooth externe.

La HandshoeMouse SHIFT ne nécessite aucune tension ou utilisation musculaire passive, et décourage tout effort musculaire excessif lors de l'utilisation active de la souris, ce qui en fait la seule souris sur le marché qu'il est presque impossible d'utiliser de manière incorrecte. La conception en cascade de la HandshoeMouse SHIFT offre un support de repos naturellement incurvé pour les doigts, leur permettant de se détendre complètement entre les clics. Cela élimine les effets négatifs de l'anticipation du clic qui, sur les souris traditionnelles, se traduit par des doigts levés, ainsi que par un effort excessif et une surextension des muscles extenseurs. La conception intègre également un repose-pouce qui soutient le pouce de manière neutre et détendue, ce qui fait de la HandshoeMouse une bonne option pour les personnes souffrant de problèmes liés au pouce, comme le ténosynovite de DeQuervain. L'utilisation recommandée pour cette souris est sur la surface du bureau, l'avant-bras étant entièrement soutenu par le bureau ou l'accoudoir de la chaise.

En raison de la plus grande quantité de poids reposant sur une HandshoeMouse (souris plus grande, poids de la main et d'une partie de l'avant-bras), il est recommandé d'utiliser une surface de souris ferme et à faible friction pour minimiser la résistance au mouvement.

The Ergo M575 Wireless Trackball from Logitech replaces the earlier M570 Wireless Trackball, offering improved connectivity options. Like its predecessor, the M575 takes most of the repetitive movements and strain which the entire hand usually must perform and allocates all the workload to the thumb. Accurate optical tracking is provided by a laser sensor that offers 400-2000 DPI resolutions. With a contoured body that provides a relaxing support for the hand, the Ergo M575 is equipped with a scroll wheel and right and left click buttons, all positioned as with a traditional mouse. In addition there are Back and Forward Buttons for convenience when browsing through multiple pages. The trackball body is shaped to let the hand rest in a natural relaxed position. As with the earlier M570 model, the M575 is best suited to those with small- or average-sized hands.

Connection can be made via either Bluetooth or the storable USB mini receiver, with a single AA battery providing up to 2 years of service. A battery life indicator will advise when the battery needs replacing. Software available from Logitech offers customization of trackball functions and performance.

Note: As the Ergo M575 places the workload fully upon the thumb, (which on most other trackballs is generally shared amongst several fingers), anyone who has existing thumb issues would be well-advised to consider alternative solutions.

The RollerMouse Go (formerly the RollerMouse Mobile) by Contour Design is a compact version of the well-known RollerMouse Red, designed for mobility and ideally suited for use with compact keyboards. This central pointing device conveniently positions between the operator and keyboard space bar, keeping mousing activity "inline", i.e., in the area immediately in front of the keyboard, and eliminating the need to reach for a mouse. This also makes it suitable for use where there may be insufficient room for a mouse to be placed immediately beside the keyboard. Like all RollerMouse products, cursor movement is achieved by manipulating the tube-like cylindrical "rollerbar" with the fingertips. Rotating the rollerbar moves the cursor up and down, and sliding the bar from side to side accomplishes horizontal movement. Once the desired location is achieved, a left click can be generated by pressing down on the bar (the force required for this is adjustable from an ultra-light touch to highly tactile). Four tactile buttons and a clickable scroll wheel are located below the bar to generate left/middle/right clicks, copy, paste, and vertical scrolling. Cursor speed can be adjusted via a button on the right end of the RollerMouse Go, with ten different speed settings from 600 to 4000 DPI. The RollerMouse Go also ships with two heights of rubber feet that can be used to elevate low profile compact keyboards to better match the rollerbar height. Controls can also be customized using the downloadable driver.

The RollerMouse Go is equipped with the same larger diameter rollerbar found on the RED, as compared to that on the FREE3 or PRO3. On the RollerMouse Go this 0.8" diameter bar is 3.875" wide and offers a finer degree of control, especially for vertical movement. The surface of the bar is textured with raised bumps that offer tactile feedback to further improve all aspects of cursor control. Innovative tracking technology on the RollerMouse Go further enhances cursor control, letting it work equally well on both single and multi-monitor workstations. All these design elements make cursor control more precise and effortless without compromising durability and the robust nature of the sturdy aluminum housing. To further improve the ergonomics even the traditional mechanical "click" has been replaced with a newer "virtual" clicking mechanism that generates a "percussion-free" but audible "click" that can be adjusted in volume or fully disabled if so desired.

Because the RollerMouse Go is designed for mobile use it offers features not available on the larger RollerMouse Red. This compact RollerMouse offers three connection options - to Bluetooth-enabled devices, via a an included 2.4 gHz wireless receiver, or as a wired device via the included charging cable. It also comes with a folding protective sleeve that attaches and closes magnetically.

While the RollerMouse Go can work perfectly well with any type or size of keyboard those using full-size or separated keyboards may wish to consider one of the full-size RollerMouse Models.

The MX Ergo Wireless Trackball from Logitech shares many design features with the M570 Wireless Trackball. The body contours are virtually identical, with more angular lines and a metallic grey trackball to distinguish it from the M570. The differences focus on improved ergonomics and expanded functionality. The MX Ergo Wireless Trackball features a magnetic base plate on which the trackball can be angled to either 0° or 20° by a simple shift of pressure from the hand and the included 10° accessory wedge can be installed to offer a 10° to 30° option.

The MX Ergo Trackball transfers all cursor control to the thumb, which virtually eliminates arm movement when mousing. Accurate adjustable optical tracking is provided by a 380 DPI laser sensor with a thumb-activated Precision Mode button. The contoured body provides a relaxing support for the hand, naturally positioning the fingers over the right and left buttons. A rubber-coated tilting scroll wheel with crisp detents is conveniently positioned between these buttons to complete the traditional mouse control layout. The index finger has easy access to convenient Back and Forward Buttons for browsing through multiple pages of a document or web page.

The MX Ergo Wireless Trackball offers Dual Connectivity - USB via the included Logitech Unifying receiver, or Bluetooth (see Detailed Specifications for compatibility details). Those working with multiple computers at a time may wish to take advantage of the "Logitech Flow" capability to connect with and work seamlessly across two separate computers.Note: As the MX Ergo Wireless Trackball places the workload fully upon the thumb, (which on most other trackballs is generally shared by several fingers), anyone who has existing thumb issues would be well-advised to consider alternative solutions.

The Bluetooth Ergonomic Mouse from Microsoft is a basic medium-sized mouse designed for right-handed use by those with small to medium-sized hands. The contoured body provides a resting flange for the thumb to discourage the pinching action that many use when moving their mouse. The mouse is equipped with a clickable textured metal scroll wheel that features crisp detents. Two primary buttons offer the standard Right and Left clicks, with two additional thumb buttons for Back and Forward. Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center software facilitates custom programming of all buttons, scroll wheel functions, and DPI settings from 400 to 2400.

Bluetooth communication eliminates wire clutter and the ability to pair with up to three Window-based computers and switch seamlessly between them makes the Bluetooth Ergonomic Mouse an appealing option.
Note: Devices must support Bluetooth 4.0 or higher.

For those who prefer the reliability of a wired connection the Ergonomic mouse is also available in a wired version.

The Pro Fit Ergo Wireless Mouse from Kensington presents with a body angle of approximately 40°, rotating the hand away from a traditional fully prone position. This wireless mouse is contoured specifically for right-handed use and operates plug-and-play. It is able to connect via either standard 2.4 GHz wireless with the included receiver dongle, or through Bluetooth 4.0 with devices that can support this option. A switch on the underside changes mode and doubles as a batter-saving power switch. Optional software is available for both Windows and Mac OS should one desire to customize the button functions. A convenient DPI switch just behind the scroll wheel accommodates quick access to three DPI settings (800, 1200 and 1600) to accommodate different work requirements. The wireless receiver can be stored in the underside of the mouse to ensure it isn't misplaced. The scroll wheel has detents to provide clear feedback response. The click action is somewhat soft and very quiet. This lack of tactile and auditory feedback may make it difficult to determine when clicks have truly activated and may lead to a greater degree of force being exerted, resulting in unnecessary stress on the fingers.

The size of this mouse means it is best suited for smaller to average sized hands as those with larger hands will find their palm either unsupported or their fingers extending past the end of the buttons, with the "inset" of the buttons into the body of the mouse making it difficult to perform clicks. The body is fairly narrow as well, encouraging "gripping" rather than permitting larger hands to relax.

The MX Vertical Advanced Ergonomic Mouse from Logitech is their first attempt at offering a mouse which more aggressively reduces pronation than other mice in their line. The body of the MX Vertical is angled at a fixed 57° to reduce the risks associated with pronation of the forearm. The angled body is designed to provide the support necessary for the hand to "relax" while engaged with the mouse. However, those with smaller or narrower hands may find that they need to maintain a degree of tension to hold their hands "up" in position over the buttons. Large or wide hands will likely have less of a problem with this requirement to maintain hand position.

The MX Vertical is equipped with a top quality sensor capable of reading from 400 - 4000 DPI. Two nominal settings of 1000 and 1600 DPI can be adjusted anywhere within the range in 50 DPI increments. The top-mounted DPI button enables users to adjust the mouse as needed for basic or fine control movements. The scroll wheel has a rubber tire for grip and features distinct but soft detents. There are 4 programmable buttons (left, right, back, & forward).

The MX Vertical offers 3 connection options: Wired via the charging cord, 2.4Ghz Logitech Unifying Receiver with an operation distance up to 33 feet, and Bluetooth (Bluetooth Low Energy Technology required). The 270mAh Li-Po rechargeable battery can provide up to 4 months use on a single charge and offers a 1 minute Quick Charge that can provide up to 3 hours of use. Of course, individual usage may affect this. Using Logitech "FLOW" users are able to connect to and control up to 3 computing devices using a single mouse.

The "flatness" of the buttons on the MX Vertical prohibit the fingers from achieving a fully relaxed and naturally curved "position of function". This factor, combined with the almost slick surface on the buttons could lead users to try to "pinch" the mouse between the thumb and fingers in an attempt to achieve a better sensation of "control". In addition, to minimize the activation force on the buttons the fingertips need to be as close to the end of the buttons as possible. Those with large hands or very long fingers may be able to achieve this position but most users will find their fingertips falling short of this "optimum" position, resulting in a higher force being required for click activation.

The Pro Fit Ergo Vertical Wireless Trackball from Kensington offers thumb-operated cursor control that eliminates the traditional arm and hand movement required with a traditional mouse. It also moves the hand and forearm away from a prone position by angling the hand outward at 60°. The 34mm trackball offers silky-smooth movement with adjustable optical tracking from 400-1500 DPI. The contoured body provides a support for the hand, naturally positioning the fingers over the right and left buttons. Side scrolling function is provided by a tilting scroll wheel that features crisp detents, conveniently positioned between these buttons to complete the traditional mouse control layout. The index finger has easy access to convenient Back and Forward Buttons for browsing through multiple pages of a document or web page.

The Pro Fit Ergo Vertical Wireless Trackball offers Dual Connectivity that can simultaneously support connections to up to 3 computers or devices (1 via the included 2.4 GHz receiver and up to 2 more via Bluetooth.

As the Pro Fit Ergo Vertical Wireless Trackball places the workload fully upon the thumb, (which on most other trackballs is generally shared by several fingers), anyone who has existing thumb issues would be well-advised to consider alternative solutions.

The R-Go HE Sport Ergonomic Mouse from R-Go Tools rotates the hand upward and outward. This angled posture reduces strain on the tissues of the forearm when compared with the traditional pronated "palm down" position. In addition, because the hand is now elevated up and away from the surface, users are no longer able to "plant" the heel of their hand in the manner that the traditional mouse position encourages. Thus, the potential for the development of RSI from repetitive or sustained wrist extension is virtually eliminated.

The R-Go HE Sport Ergonomic Mouse offers support for the hand and fingers, encouraging users to let their hand relax against the natural contours. The R-Go HE Sport is sized to accommodate hand sizes ranging from 6.5" to 7.3" in length, is available in both Left and Right. It is equipped with a 4-level sensor that can read from 800-2400 DPI.

The R-Go HE Sport Ergonomic Mouse features a striking red body with contrasting silver buttons. The highly textured thumbrest ensures firm control but users with high sensitivity may find the braille-like nodules less than comfortable. Connectivity is via Bluetooth so this model will only connect with computers that are Bluetooth-enabled. For non-bluetooth environments there are both Wired and a 2.4 GHZ Wireless models available. The wired BREAK model provides also visual cues to remind users to take regular breaks in order to reduce the risk of developing RSI.
Note: When selecting the appropriate size of R-Go Mouse the hand should be measured from the tip of the middle finger to the first crease in the wrist.
