Usability Quote of the Day

January 6, 2009

The prevailing computer-human interaction (CHI) model of interface design has been partly responsible for the current state of the desktop computer. The breakthrough on which the field emerged was the admission of psychological principles. The resulting graphical user interface has been the focus of the field of computer-human interaction for nearly 20 years. This interface is a virtual control panel whose design has remained quite technology-centered. -- Malcolm McCullough, Digital Ground, 2004   (via interaction-design.org)

The first palm operated pointing device

"With the ErgoClick you use both hands in a completely relaxed manner - the right hand (palm only) is used to position the pointer on the screen and the left hand (palm only) to click.

People typically grip the common mouse too hard as it is required in order to maintain precision while performing clicking actions.
The ErgoClick will make any mouse of any design better by permitting the user to use a lighter grip on their mouse."

The ErgoClick has a unique feature which is not available in any other keyboard or traditional mouse currently on the market – an adjustable clicking force. You can adjust the actuation force of the button from 30 grams to 300 grams, creating as light or as strong a touch as required. Even at the lightest force setting of 30 grams, the click sensation provided is highly tactile and responsive.
