A novel concept of ergodynamic desktops with slowly varying configurations for ergonomic purposes is provided. Very slow motions are incorporated into the design of desktops, usually used by computer users. The introduced motion is at such a slow pace that it is hardly noticeable, similar to the adiabatic motions of hour or minute hands on a clock. Users of the desktops are therefore induced to adjust their body posture accordingly in a gradual and healthy manner, while still continuing to perform their normal activities without interruption. These desktop designs allow a natural and effortless combination of normal life and exercise. When used in a working environment, they will be useful to improve the health and to enhance the efficiency of workers.
