Ergonomic Keyboard & Mouse Setup

Position input devices comfortably

Setting up keyboard/mouse ergonomically means keeping elbows near 90?, wrists neutral, devices at the same height/angle, using negative tilt if helpful, and keeping the mouse close to avoid reach and strain.

Position

Elbows ~90?, wrists neutral; keyboard flat/negative tilt.

Align

Mouse at same height and close; avoid overreaching.

Adjust

Consider wrist rests sparingly; take microbreaks to reduce strain.
