Artificial Preventive

Artificial Preventive is a computer mouse, which is designed for long work days on the computer without health consequences. The most common cause of tendonitis is the sagging of the wrist, which is counteracted here with a support. Unlike a vertical mouse, the usual hand position can be maintained. In addition to this, the mouse can be operated ambidextrously thanks to its axial symmetry. Under the top shell of the key elements, which respond to a slight torsion of the component, there is a capacitive element that allows for scrolling without a visually disturbing mouse wheel. The form language reference here was a hand prosthesis with the aim of supporting as much of the hand as possible.

This project was developed as a student project and not on behalf of any company.
