TrackIR2 available mid-November - Pre-Order yours today!

TrackIR2, the next generation of headtracking game control, will be shipping from ErgoCanada.com as soon as they are available.  UPDATE: We have confirmed we are receiving the first shipment of units Nov. 26th and will be shipping all back orders Nov. 27th. We still have a couple of units left after meeting our back orders, and once they are gone the second shipment will not be arriving until mid-December, so if you want to ensure you will get your TrackIR2 for Christmas, get your order in as soon as possible!

The NaturalPoint TrackIR2 is the perfect enhancement for gamers and simmers looking for a competitive edge and an enhanced virtual reality experience. Imagine controlling your field of view in first person shooters, flight simulators, and many other types of games by simply looking around! The TrackIR2 features a new advanced imaging system running at 100 frames per second, over 60% faster than the current TrackIR.

Complete view control with small head movements - move your head a little and the view changes a lot. The TrackIR2 follows your head movements using the same type of infrared tracking technology utilized by military pilots. Look around without taking your eyes of the screen!

TrackIR2 enhanced titles include:

Microsoft Fight Simulator 2002   -   IL-2 Sturmovik: Forgotten Battles   -   Lock-On: Modern Air Combat   -   Live for Speed   -   Falcon 4: Operation Infinite Resolve   -   Fair Strike   -   with more being added all the time!

Wrist Arm Support Platforms (WASPs) are now available!

Looking for a wrist support which will work on any worksurface and has no clamping or mounting requirements? The WASP may be the answer. It is an innovative wrist support which allows you to glide your hand across the full range of the keyboard and mouse while comfortably supporting your wrist. You won't have to support the weight of your hands and forearms while using your computer.

This unique wrist support incorporates a recessed area where the wrist and forearm will be positioned (as illustrated) which ensures there is no loss of circulation to the hand - the W.A.S.P. circulation channel.

Tests show a reduction in blood flow to this area when accompanied by muscle fatigue, may result in tissue degradation and the release of lactic acid and cytokines and other pain-producing and inflammatory substances. This can result in tight muscles which pull on tendons and crimp nerves, causing pain and loss of feeling.

For more information on this product, see our Accessories - Rests category in our Online Catalog.

Zero Tension Mice are now here in Canada!

We are pleased to add another vertical mousing device to our range of ergonomic mousing alternatives. The Zero Tension Mouse is similar to the 3M Renaissance mouse except that it has a thicker, sculpted base and thicker post which you curl your fingers around. There are two buttons on the side and a scroll wheel on top which also is a left mouse button. There are two sizes available, Medium and Large, and at present is only available for right handed individuals. This device is USB only, and is plug-and-play for both Macintosh and PC systems.

For more information on this product, see our Mouse - Contoured category in our Online Catalog.

Corner Conversion Kits from Foxbay - Get more use out of 'L' workstations!

These kits create usable work space from a wasted corner in any 'L' workstation. Corner Conversion Units bridge most right-angle work surfaces and allow you to mount an articulating arm or create a larger usable desk top. Kits are available in both 21" and 26" sizes, and will accomodate desktop surfaces up to 1.5" thick. An Ultra-Thin, heavy gauge sheet metal with a powder coating is used on these products, which is both durable and aesthetically pleasing.

For more information on this product, see our Articulating Arms category in our Online Catalog.

 

Softworqs Gel Palm Rests Now Available!

We are pleased to expand our range of palm rests to include the complete line of products from Softworqs.  Several sizes are available, one which may be of note is the contoured gel wrist rest for the Microsoft Elite style keyboards. Various lengths and thicknesses are available, and colors include black and forest green.
