摘要

A system and method for reducing fatigue of a computer user. The system includes a keyboard (22), a display device (24) accessible to a user while the user is looking at the keyboard, a computer (26) capable of receiving input from the keyboard (22), and a computer monitor (28) for displaying the data. Data entered from the keyboard (22) is displayed upon the display device (24), reducing a need for gaze shifting, thereby reducing fatigue. The method includes the steps of providing a keyboard (22), placing a display device (24) in a location that makes it accessible to a user of the keyboard (22) while the user is looking at the keyboard and allowing the display device (24) to receive data input from the keyboard and to simultaneously display the data along with the computer monitor (28).
