Microsoft has announced the Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop, a combination of the Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard and the Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse. The keyboard incorporates a split layout, to help position the wrists and forearms in a natural, relaxed position. The palm rest is cushioned and the keyboard has a “domed” shape, to reduce wrist pronation.

The keyboard is optimized for Windows and features hotkeys at the top for quick access to the charms in Windows 8 (and Windows 8.1) as well as media playback and snap controls for multitasking. And the number pad is separate – allowing you to move it out of the way if you are not using it. This also adds ergonomic benefits – helping reduce the potential for shoulder rotation injuries.

The Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse is also designed for healthy computing with a unique ergonomic shape that encourages natural postures. The mouse is taller than most mice to reduce the contact between desktop surface and the underside of your hand, which helps minimize carpal tunnel pressure. And the angle of the mouse puts the forearm in a more relaxed position. All these ergonomic benefits should change the way you feel when using a mouse for long periods of time. The mouse also features the Windows button for quick access to your Start screen in Windows 8, a ‘back’ button for quick navigation, and a four-way scroll wheel (for horizontal and vertical scrolling).
