DESIGN NAME: Dynamic
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Rocking keyboard
INSPIRATION: Nowadays, many young people have lumbar disc herniation, periarthritis of shoulder, cervical spondylosis and myopia. Inattention to rest when they work using computer is the main cause of these physical discomforts. Especially for designers and programmers, they stare at the computer for hours without rest while drawing, modeling and writing codes. If there is a keyboard to remind them to rest, it is very practical for their life.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a keyboard designed to help people forget to rest during work.The person in the job often forgets time, a pose often maintains changeful, be in commonly 60 to 100 minutes sometimes even longer, eye waist shoulder neck can overworked, as time passes appear of all sorts of waist shoulder neck afflict, this keyboard reminds you to notice to rest actively in your job, prevent disease of waist shoulder neck.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Nowadays high intensity works make office workers sit in front of computers for a very long time without moving. This phenomenon cause myopia and make more and more people suffer from lumbar disc herniation, periarthritis of shoulder and cervical spondylosis. This design aim to help computer users alternate work with rest. Seeing from the side, the keyboard is circular. Once the use time of the computer exceeds the set time, the keyboard will remind them to rest for a while through shaking up and down.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in September 2018 in Jing DeZhen and finished in December 2018 in Jing DeZhen.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Digital and Electronic Device Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The keyboard is made of aluminium alloy through CNC machining for the body and casting molding for the key cap. Shaking of the keyboard is controlled by digital chip.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 306.2 mm x 107.5 mm x 9.4 mm
TAGS: Keyboard, Shaking, Reminder, Rest
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: This is a keyboard designed to remind people to rest when they stare at computer for a long time. Nowadays high intensity works make office workers sit in front of computers for a very long time without moving. This phenomenon cause myopia and make more and more people suffer from lumbar disc herniation, periarthritis of shoulder and cervical spondylosis. This design aim to help computer users alternate work with rest. Seeing from the side, the keyboard is circular. Once the use time of the computer exceeds the set time, the keyboard will remind them to rest for a while through shaking up and down. Furthermore, the configuration of this keyboard is more ergonomic, which make user have enjoyable experiments. The keyboard is made of aluminium alloy through CNC machining for the body and casting molding for the key cap. Shaking of the keyboard is controlled by digital chip. There are two difficulties to be solved in this design, one is the device to control the shaking of the keyboard, and the other is the molding of the curved keyboard.
CHALLENGE: There are two difficulties to be solved in this design, one is the device to control the shaking of the keyboard, and the other is the molding of the curved keyboard.
