If you ask ASCII.jp editors to use the strongest Elgonomick environment, try to see how the posture changes.

To avoid going out, telecommuting has increased, and meetings are often held online. It's an advantage to no longer spend time commuting and traveling, but instead, there is more and more time before PC.

Unwittingly working long hours, sore shoulders and low back pain worsened. There are people like that, too. Regular rest and exercise, do not continue the same work for a long time, poor posture will not work, if you pay attention to this, but if you are busy, you will forget it before you know it.

I wish I could at least find a way to pose, but the reality is not that simple. Although I paid attention to the first few minutes or so, I don't know when I will return to my original bad posture once I immerse myself in my homework. Everyone has such an experience.

Therefore, it is recommended to use devices designed by Elgonome, which can easily become natural postures even without consciousness. Especially the keyboard, when doing desk work, it is easy to look forward to the effect only for things that have been exposed for a long time.

This time, the author was the first to borrow the Lagonomic keyboard "ERGO K860", which will be sold in Japan on August 19th. The author's own experience is introduced in the comments and reports on this product. In this draft, others in the editorial department of ASCII are invited to use it and ask about their feelings.

Split the keys left and right and arrange them into an arc-shaped layout of the impressive "ERGO K860". The first is to lighten the burden on your fingers and wrists.

What keyboard is "ERGO K860"?

Before actually touching, let's briefly introduce what kind of keyboard "ERGO K860" is.

Elgonomic design is a product designed according to ergonomics. In general, industrial products are cost-effective and easy to make, but often the emphasis is on design, such as appearance, Hergonomic design, or how to use them reasonably and effectively, which is emphasized on ease of use.

You can see the design of the "ERGO K860", but there are two big differences from the ordinary keyboard. One is that the keys are divided into left and right and arranged in an arc.

When you put your hand on the keyboard, the angle of your wrist will stretch straight and the burden will be reduced.

The fingers move in an arc around the wrist. On the usual keyboard where the keys are arranged in a straight line, it is necessary to bend and stretch the fingers to correspond to the keys, but in ERGO K860, each finger can be tapped in the same bent state. As a result, no extra force is exerted on the fingers, and even long keystrokes are less likely to get tired.

In addition, because the key is divided left and right and tilted, so the angle of the wrist naturally straightens is also a key point that can not be missed. Because even the relaxed posture of gently opening your armpits is easy to use, it is easy to reduce the burden not only on the wrists, but also on the shoulders and neck.

Another point is that the central part of the division is largely enthusiastic. There is no need to lie horizontally by twisting the wrist, because it is suitable for a slightly upright position, so it can reduce the load on the wrist.

Because it is the design of the central uplift, the wrist is a natural angle. This is also an ergonomic-based shape.

In addition, there is a built-in bracket under the palmrest that can adjust the height in three stages, so it is interesting to change it to an angle that does not bend the wrist.

In addition, the function is also very rich, including up to three pairing and fast switching, button customization, automatic switching function "Logicool Flow" combined with the mouse.

These details are introduced in the above comments and the report of the product commentary workshop, and those who care hope that they can also check them over there.

Not only the keyboard, the mouse and the chair are also Elgonomick!

Even if someone says that the posture is not good, if you don't know what to do to make the posture better, there is no way to improve it. Here, tell us a little bit about the posture you want to pay attention to.

The basic posture when sitting, 1 head pull up the same impression of back stretch, 2 pelvis slightly forward sitting, 3 knees slightly bent 90 degrees, this kind of consciousness is good.

Start from this position when using the keyboard, 4 elbows start directly below the shoulder, 1 fist is opened between the 5 bodies and arms, and 6 the central part of the forearm is supported on the table. Note that the shoulders will not rise and should be able to hit the ball in a natural position.

In addition, the angle of the line of sight is also important. When using a laptop, the line of sight is always easy to drop and hunchback. It's okay to use an external monitor when working at home, the line of sight is not too low.

In addition, it is good that the height of the eye is consistent with the position on the top of the monitor. When you adjust the height in the grandstand, you want to use it as a benchmark.

Although work in this position, but in unaccustomed circumstances, with the passage of time, posture is also easy to get worse. So it's ERGO K860's turn. And, this time, the mouse and chair are also equipped with something designed by Elgonome.

The mouse prepared the same logic game "MX Vertical", and then prepared the game brand logic game G's "Enbodi Game Chair" on the chair.

Elgonomick mouse "MX Vertical"

"MX Vertical" is a model that tilts the grasping angle 57 degrees and can be used without twisting the wrist. The shape of a tent is a strange thing invisible to the mouse, but when you put down your hand, you will be surprised to be a better fit than you thought. I am well aware of how the mouse has twisted its wrist so far.

The 57-degree angle design is surprising, but it is common as a mouse function. Equipped with rolling wheel, forward / back button, cursor speed switch, etc. Logicool Flow is supported and multiple PC can be switched.

Although the shape is unique, the function as a mouse is normal. As long as you get used to the method of holding it, you can use it without a sense of disobedience.

"Enbodi Game Chair", as its name implies, is a chair that comes online as game supplies. It was developed in cooperation with Harman Miller, famous for its Aaron chairs, and is a model that focuses on reducing fatigue and improving posture.

A game chair developed in cooperation with Harman Miller. Of course, it is not for game use, and it is usually suitable for use.

According to the backrest of the curve support, the height and angle adjustment of the handrail, the change of the seat size, the tilt angle and hardness, etc., its characteristic is that it can be adjusted in great detail according to its own preference.

It is characterized by rich customization functions.

Using the three points of "ERGO K860", "MX Vertical" and "embossed chair", we try to build the so-called "strongest Elgonomick environment", but it really matters how effective it is.

So, this time, three people from Asky's editorial department of different generations experienced these products and asked them what effect they felt and how they felt to use them.
