ABSTRACT:
A reconfigurable workstation (10) is illustrated having video, keyboard, and hand operated motion controller capabilities. The workstation includes main side panels (12, 14) between which a primary work panel (A) is pivotally carried in a manner in which primary work panel (A) may be adjusted and set in a negatively declined or positively inclined position for proper forearm support while operating hand controllers (34, 36). A keyboard table (B) supports a keyboard (32) in such a manner that the keyboard (32) is set in a positively inclined position with respect to the negatively declined work panel (A). Declined forearm support surfaces (26, 28) are provided on either side of an alcove (24) accommodating a seated operator with forearms of the operator supported in a declined position for proper support and operation of the hand controllers (34, 36). A visual display unit (C) is inclined with respect to primary work panel (A) so that the operator seated at alcove (24) is properly positioned. With the proper declination of work panel (A) and inclination of keyboard (32) and a visual display unit (64), keys (33) of keyboard (32) and the screen of visual display units (62, 64) are well within the focal cone (106) of operator (96). Various adjustable devices (70, 90, 98, and 102) are provided for adjusting the relative declinations and inclinations of the work panels, tables, and visual display panels.
