Ergonomic mouse replacement
Continuing the discussion of solutions for alleviating the physical stress of using a mouse, I will mention a replacement for the mouse reviewed at ExtremeTech called the Trackbar Emotion. This device is intended to completely replace the mouse. The review says:
The Trackbar Emotion offers an alternative and ergonomic solution over the traditional mouse. Whether or not that means it is suited for you is another issue. Anybody, and especially those with RSI or related injuries, should note its potential benefits. Most movement will be done with the fingers, much more so than with a regular mouse, but this time with very little wrist movement required. Since the unit is symmetrical and easy to use with one or both hands, users with trouble areas on one hand can simply switch over to the other hand. The Trackbar Emotion is positioned below the main typing area, leaving your hands closer to the keyboard while mitigating any potential shoulder strain that can be caused by reaching for a mouse.
