Traditional flat keyboards force your hands, wrists, and shoulders into an unnatural, inwardly-rotated position (ulnar deviation and forearm pronation). The ErgoSplit completely mitigates this by allowing you to separate the two halves of the keyboard to match your shoulder width perfectly.
Biomechanics of Typing
By attaching the included tenting kit, you can raise the inner edges of the keyboard halves. This allows your hands to rest in a natural "handshake" position, drastically reducing the strain on your median nerve and minimizing the risk of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
Mechanical Precision
Unlike cheap membrane ergonomic keyboards, the ErgoSplit utilizes tactile mechanical switches (Cherry MX) that provide distinct physical feedback, reducing the force required to actuate a key and minimizing "bottoming out"—another common source of finger joint pain.
