  • Publication number: 20060291946
    Abstract: A plurality of embodiments of ergonomic apparatus for keyboards are provided for interfacing with a user's arms, wrists, hands and fingers in a more natural way, i.e., in ways that are optimally suited to human typing. The ergonomic apparatus for a keyboard includes structures that reduce extension of human hands while typing on the keyboard. An attachable frame component may be provided which, when attached to a keyboard near its front (the front being closest to the user), the frame component elevates the front of the keyboard thereby achieving a reverse slope of an upper surface of the keyboard.
