This book provides an in-depth coverage of the ergonomics of computer pointing devices. It uses a human-centered design perspective, emphasizing the importance of human performance experimental research as a basis for both the evaluation of existing pointing devices and the design of new devices. The book includes 1) a comprehensive background on psychomotor research of human pointing performance; 2) a summary of the results of twenty years of ergonomic research on individual devices and interdevice comparisons; and 3) extensive explanation of how computer pointing device performance is integrated into task analysis. Two case studies provide detailed descriptions of experimental methodologies for comparison of one pointing device against a baseline device and for detailed analysis of the factors limiting human performance of a single device.
