Vertical Keyboard Vertical Keyboard
Most of us might be using a standard QWERTY keyboard and its design is over a centaury old. Keyboard design has stagnated over the last few years. Some vendors have launched products that are wacky to say the least and ergonomic as well.
Vertical keyboard that is designed as per scientific biomechanical principles and virtually eliminates the high-stress postures that contribute to Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI). The device looks like a standard QWERTY keyboard that's been broken up into three equal pieces. The two outermost pieces are placed vertically, with key on the outside, and a couple of mirrors placed alongside. The horizontal middle piece has the number keys.
These keyboards are designed to reduce the stress on your wrist by placing the keys in the vertical axis, rather than horizontal as with normal keyboard.
A good example of vertical keyboard is Safetype keyboard, introduced by SafeType, Inc which is the worlds best selling Vertical Keyboard.
Microsoft too has a series of keyboards specifically designed to reduce stress due to typing and they are much cheaper than solutions such as SafeType.
