Ergonomic design is perhaps one of the most intuitive concepts practiced by industries today. The practice of ergonomic design aims to adapt a tool or job to a specific user or worker and specialize it according to their exact needs and capabilities. From electronic devices to doorknobs, the man-made world conforms to the human form. The body as a whole is made up of many forms, it stands as a bipedal entity. From the vertical axis to the center the body has a general symmetry: two eyes, two ears, a nose with two nostrils, up to the arms, hands, legs and feet. The intricate way in which joints, appendages, arms and legs move inherently creates the need for ergonomically designed tools that conform to the shape of the body. A medieval knight is ergonomically protected by metal armor, the armor has been specially shaped to perfectly and comfortably fit the specifics of his body type. This practice is an instinctive trait throughout the human timeline. In the past, our early predecessors used rocks and sticks to pulverize the world around them and subdue it. These sticks and rocks had to be of reasonable weight, size, and length for them to be chosen as tools. Therefore, early humans used tools that were ergonomic in nature. Ever since the first stick was used as a tool, humanity has continued to advocate the practice of using tools to make their lives easier. Ergonomic design requires that the physical object be accessible via a body part. After the stick, the evolution of instruments exploded. In today's society everything conforms to the shape of the human body. The pillows wrap around your neck to provide optimal comfort and complete immersion. Most students walk… middle of paper… allow the process to unfold smoothly and easily with specialized controls and inputs. Our world today would not have the advantages and luxuries of today without the intuitive practice of ergonomic design. Many positive side effects have emerged from the use of ergonomic design, such as more efficient ways to access and manage information to work more industriously. Ergonomic design has produced many useful technologies in the world such as computers, keyboards and other personal electronic devices. Maintaining good posture is the main goal of ergonomic design, chairs support the back and bottom, desks and tables support the arms, and the floor underneath also supports the feet at this time. Movement is essential when it comes to ergonomic design, architecture supports movement in the design. The ergonomic design offered great ways to access information
