“Our partnership with Prestige International validates the principle that ErgoMotion is a breakthrough technology for the Ergonomic Community and the market for products which contribute to healthier computing,” said Dr. Jack Atzmon, President and CEO of Smartfish Technologies. “Prestige International is a leading player in the Ergonomic arena and their proven success in the market makes them a great partner for Smartfish. The Prestige International partnership is yet another example of Smartfish’ ability to accelerate its partners success with new and Innovative products conceived, designed and manufactured by Smartfish.”

Combining the science of ergonomics with the technology of motion, Smartfish’s ErgoMotion is the industry’s most advanced computer peripheral solution designed to relieve discomfort and repetitive stress injuries (RSI) related to extended computer usage. ErgoMotion forms the basis for a new generation of solutions, including mice and keyboards that promote comfort and productivity for a wide range of computer users during long hours of daily usage, whether at work or at home. ErgoMotion enables computer peripherals to automatically adjust the user’s natural hand and wrist positions throughout the day, providing for a more comfortable, healthier, and enjoyable computer lifestyle.

“Smartfish’s ErgoMotion technology is a significant breakthrough for the Ergonomic Community and for individuals who suffer from the debilitating nature of RSI. Smartfish patented technology solves the RSI problem and is offered at a price point that Ergonomic Community have never seen before in such a robust solution,” said Lance Rocha, V.P., of Prestige. “Prestige will continue to bring unique and exciting products to the market and the ErgoMotion technology is an excellent example of a product which the Ergonomic community are asking for. We’re excited to launch the ErgoMotion Mouse and Keyboard and looking forward to new ErgoMotion products from Smartfish in the future.”

With its intelligent onboard processing, the ErgoMotion keyboard moves through seven different dynamic positions based on the user’s typing frequency, periodically adjusting the slope and radial alignment of the hands and wrists to avoid fixed positions that constrict movement, which often causes strain and injury. The ErgoMotion Keyboard features a radial adjustment that repositions a user’s hands and wrists to alleviate the wrist’s horizontal rotation. The ErgoMotion Keyboard simultaneously alternates forward and reverse slopes to change the wrists’ arch in a more natural and comfortable position so they are never in a fixed state during computer usage.

The ErgoMotion Mouse is the first laser mouse for the PC that features a patented swivel mechanism to promote a fluid movement, allowing the mouse to intuitively adapt to the user’s hand position. Smartfish’s technology enables forward, backward and lateral pivots, creating a wave-like movement for the wrist every time the mouse is in use. The ErgoMotion Mouse boasts a sleek design, and features both left and right click, four-way scroll wheel and a discreet wireless USB plug-in. The device is compatible with MACs and PCs, and features an ambidextrous design for both right and left-handed users.

About Smartfish Technologies

Smartfish Technologies was founded on a passion for healthier living, smart technology and true ergonomic innovation in an ever-growing electronic world. As a practicing chiropractor of 14 years, Smartfish president and CEO Dr. Jack Atzmon met with thousands of patients who continually complained of hand, wrist, shoulder and back pain. Through extensive knowledge of repetitive stress injury (RSI) - common forms known as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, he began to understand that a key contributor to these ailments came from the day-to-day use of computers - specifically, repetitive motion of computer peripheral use.

Dr. Atzmon’s vision and breakthrough technology led him to form Smartfish Technologies and launch a line of computer peripherals based on the company’s ErgoMotion technologies, beginning with the ErgoMotion Mouse, to promote a healthy PC lifestyle for work and play.
