What input devices would a designer recommend for solving ergonomic problems?

Question

PHP

Hello.
I work in a standard set of programs: 3ds, Ph, Substance, etc.
I began to notice problems popularly called carpal tunnel syndrome. I went through the information on the Internet, tried something, but so far little is clear, especially when applied to work tasks.
More specifically, the questions are:
1) whether an ergonomic keyboard like the Logitech k860 is comfortable when working on a keyboard + mouse scheme, and not just when typing. I don't think so. The convenience of banal switching in Ph from a brush to a pipette (BI) is already in question, because these keys are located in different zones of the ergo keyboard, much further than on a standard straight line. And how many more such inconveniences can there be! (I understand that a split-custom keyboard with individual key settings is a good solution, but I don’t want to bother with it just yet)
2) what would you advise to replace (and advise) the mouse? I tried to use a graph tablet on one advice :)) But in 3ds, of course, there is not enough at least a banal scroll wheel. I just tried it, and have not yet delved into the key settings, but I wanted to ask exactly the opinions of those who faced the task. Is it possible to work comfortably in 3ds on a graph tablet, or is a trackball an ideal solution, or something else?

Answer 1

Maybe not soar your brain and download software for parsing? For example sbfactory.ru/?p=600
There is authorization and parsing in csv or directly into the database, etc.

Answer 2

All sorts of ergos are uncomfortable for me, but!
The keyboard must be with rest! That is, with a wrist rest. This is such a tail below the gap, which smoothly fades to nothing to the table. The rest should be wide - 5-6 cm, there are quite a few keyboards with such a rest, now I use Microsoft Wireless Comfort 5050. For
a long time I drive the mouse with my left hand to free my right hand for typing, the mouse is an ordinary universal mouse, from the kit, quite massive .
Landing is very important! The elbow should not hang, it should rest on the table. The second elbow is usually on the armrest, for this the chair must be selected in height (depending on your height, I am of medium height and my chair is adjusted so that when landing my legs are slightly higher90 degrees (that is, the knees form an angle not of 90, but of about 100 degrees).
In no case is a gaming chair with a swing mechanism - an ordinary office chair with a springy back - it will fall apart well in a gaming chair and call the secretary for a suction , but you won’t work in it for eight hours.

Answer 3

I advise you to adjust the height of the table, chair and monitor.
This is necessary, and most likely will be sufficient.

Answer 4

better than the usual Claudia has not yet come up with anything. Is that the keyboard from MS with a "stand" under the arms ... down there, such
a 3d mouse can fit? or whatever it's called... which has a ball on top...
Many tablets have a scroll wheel. if you draw - definitely a tablet will be more convenient

Answer 5

For me, changing the table and chair helped me overcome the tunnel syndrome, the mouse and keyboard remained the same, and I also began to monitor my posture and posture. Don't let your elbow hang in the air. And about the hot keys, for sure, a direct keyboard for one hand is more convenient than any "anti RSI", unless you transfer the hot keys to the left half, press the control with your thumb, and the far one with your little finger is less tiring. I work a lot in AutoCAD, a regular gaming mouse with 4 extra keys makes things a lot easier.
