As John Ridd of JRP Ergonomics says;"It is a sophisticated tool that does the job it was designed to do; namely, to help the user reduce the risk of ULD (RSI/MSD) by avoiding static hand posture, and it does this in a manner that addresses user needs and preferences. I for one am happy to use the device"
The Hoverstop vibramouse reminds the user to remove the hand from the mouse when you are not using it actively. This will help you relax your muscles and makes working with the mouse less damaging to your health. You learn to get used to the vibration signal very quickly, it won’t disturb your normal work and you will stay as productive as before.
The Vibramouse is a very effective curative (reactive) measure, to reduce existing problems and prevent them from getting worse. Simply by reducing the time you hold your mouse with 25%.
Its true power becomes evident in preventative (proactive) use: implementing the Vibramouse throughout your organization makes working more comfortable for everyone and prevents a lot of future problems and complaints. It may seem there are less recorded “complaints” among computer workers; however, over 50% do report stiffness and pain in neck and shoulders, cold and tingling hands at the end of a normal working day. Vibramouse helps reduce these problems.
