Human Variability in Computer Input Device

Computers are ubiquitously used in a number of jobs and even at home as an aid to facilitate various tasks. Operation devices are used to transfer information to machine and adjust or change the state of machine [1]. Most interaction with a computer involve using either mouse or a keyboard. People most often maintain static, unnatural posture for long hours. Using the mouse means repetitive movements which may cause physiological problems in the arm, wrist and shoulder [2].
