Ergodriven Om Handshake Vertical Mouse User Manual

Why a Vertical Mouse?

Traditional flat mice often force the wrist into an unnatural, pronated position, leading to internal shoulder rotation, tense wrists, and pressure on the palm. The Ergodriven Om Vertical Mouse promotes a neutral, handshake grip, aligning the wrist and forearm in a more relaxed, externally rotated shoulder position. This design aims to alleviate stress and discomfort during prolonged computer use.
