Abstract—There are many pointing device for computer usage especially device so call “Mouse”. Mouse is a wildly use standard device which can effect user if using for a long time such as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Ergonomics mouse or mouse that angle has been designed to suit with human low risk to have CTS. But ergonomics mouse is not widespread because of price and skill of each person, Steering law has been used to evaluate the performance of regular mouse with ergonomics mouse. The Index of difficulty (ID) is set between 16-42 total of 6 condition, The result show ergonomics mouse angle 90 degree performance is better than regular mouse at height ID.
Index Terms—Steering law, ergonomics mouse, performance evaluation, index of difficulty.
