Abstract:
Objectives To investigate if typing speed is proportional to the severity of pain in keyboard workers with work-related upper limb disorder (WRULD). Design Standardized functional typing test with participants scoring pain before and after typing; calculation of typing speed. Participants Fifty-nine patients and six controls. Setting Tertiary hospital centre for hand and upper limb pain. Main outcome measures Pain (VAS 0–10) and calculation of typing speed as words per minute. Results Three subgroups of patients were found based on their typing speed: fast, slow and intermediate. Two-tailed st

Abstract:
The paper aims to investigate the potential impact of a wearable glasses-type intervention regarding the posture and the productivity of laptop users in a standard working environment. Participants performed reading and typing tasks with a laptop with and without wearing the wearable device to compare the results. Posture markers were placed on the participant’s body to measure neck flexion and head tilt. Typing speed was measured in words per minute (WPM). The results of this study indicated that participants’ head tilt and neck flexion angles are significantly different during the reading an

Abstract:
Typing styles vary among keyboard users; however few studies have investigated the association between typing style and typing speed. The purpose of this paper is to describe the differences in typing speed between typists who rarely assume extreme postures of the wrist, hands, and fingers with typists who often assume extreme postures. The paper also examines the association between other typing behaviors, such as using a wrist support, and typing speed. Forty computer users were videotaped while typing a standardized text. Their typing postures were rated using the Keyboard Personal Computer

Abstract:
51 high school students enrolled in a typing class were categorized according to eye color. Dark-eyed individuals are reportedly better at reactive activities and light-eyed individuals are reportedly better at self-paced activities. Speed typing was assumed to be a reactive activity. No differences were observed between light-eyed and dark-eyed individuals or between boys and girls for 1- and 5-min. speed-typing and grades.

Abstract:
With increasing frequency, reports appear in the popular press linking hand and wrist musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) with keyboard work. Excessive ulnar deviation and self-perceived fast typing speed are two of the many risk factors identified through various epidemiological studies of upper extremity MSD symptoms among those working with keyboards. Yet no study has offered quantitative, biomechanical evidence to explain how these factors might contribute to MSD development. A study was designed to examine carpal tunnel pressure (CTP) during typing, and the effect of radial-ulnar wrist postu

Abstract:
In this Python project , our goal is to build a game in which user can check and even improve typing speed. For a graphical user interface, we will be going to use the Tkinter library in Python which is used for working with graphics. A typing speed test help you to check your typing speed and improve it with regular practice. With the python project, learn to build an application using Tkinter library that can detect typing speed of user with accuracy. The project contains only the user side. It is a simple typing challenge game project. This is like a game, one-by-one random word will pop up

Abstract:
Human factors experimentation facilitated the design of a portable terminal keyboard for combined one-handed and two-handed operation. To ensure a comfortable grip, the terminal had to be made smaller by reducing the size of its keyboard. The product design team needed to know how small the keyboard could be before it degraded the usability of the keyboard and the overall product. The keyboard experiment was designed primarily to determine the effect of both the number of hands used in typing and key spacing on typing speed and accuracy. A total of six commercially available keyboards with key

<p>This research aims to design and create media applications that will be used to train the speed and accuracy of typing in the classroom. Lack of instructional media typing speed appropriate to the circumstances in the classroom was the background of this research. The study began with the observation phase, then followed by system design and coding. An application as the research results has main features: the study materials, practice typing, and data management, which each function is executed by the user level use. Implementation of the user level is intended to secure the data fro
