Space-saving even with numerical keypad
The UltraBoard 960 is a compact standard keyboard that merges a space-saving design with an integrated numerical keypad. Positioned on the right side of the keyboard, this numerical keypad facilitates efficient number entry. Its compact size (80 mm narrower than conventional keyboards) allows you to work with your mouse hand closer to the keyboard, alleviating shoulder, neck, and back pain from reaching out wide to the mouse.
Ergonomic background
The distance between the keys ranges from 18 to 20 mm, adhering to ISO 9241 standards. The alphabetical section is clearly separated from the function keys, and the middle row of keys is no more than 30 mm above the desk surface (DIN 2137). The keyboard is tiltable and separate from the screen as mandated by the Council Directive 90/270/EEC. Dark letters on a light background improve readability (ISO 9241), boosting productivity (Snyder, 1990). The satin matt surface with dark lettering minimises reflections and enhances legibility, preventing eye strain.
Improved readability
The bright design with white keys facilitates an easy transition from viewing the bright monitor to the low-reflection keys with dark lettering. With a font size of 4 mm, the dark letters are easily recognisable, aiding faster typing. The contrast between the dark lettering and the light key background enhances readability and productivity.
Optimal layout setting
For professionals dealing with numbers, such as accountants and bank employees, the UltraBoard 960 features a full numerical keypad distinctly separated from the letter area. Its thoughtful layout maintains a compact size, offering more desk space.
USB ports
The UltraBoard 960 includes two USB ports for connecting additional devices, such as a wired mouse or headphones, enhancing your laptop’s connectivity.
Our happy customers
Tony did my original assessment, he spent so much time ensuring that we had covered all of the issues that could affect the way in which I work. He recommended equipment to help with my position and posture whilst working at the laptop and keyboard etc. The equipment was then delivered by Ryan who had previously sent me a message to confirm delivery date a details. On arrival Ryan confirmed what was being delivered then built/constructed the chair and unpacked all of the equipment and furniture. Ryan was attentive at all times, ensuring that I understood what each item was for and how it was operated.
Gabriel is a fantastic trainer. He gave me confidence in using the assistive software. He was patient, gave me time to understand the software, and answered all my questions. He has a lot of expertise, and I am happy I received Gabriel as my trainer. Thank you, Gabriel and Remtek.
I would 100% recommend Matthew Quarless as an assistive technology trainer. Matthew is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, he took the time to understand my needs and to teach me in a way that was accessible to me. He made an excellent use of the limited time we had and I came out of our session feeling prepared to make the most of my technology.
i really cant put into words how much the ergonomic equipment and software has positively impacted my education. i never knew how a few simple bits of software and ergonomic equipment could really change the game for those with complex disabilities. My software trainer Emily S is an absolute gem! She makes sure every one of my needs are addressed and that i have a thorough understanding of how everything works in order to get the most out of each individual bit of tech. Thank you Thank you THANK YOU!
Had my training sessions with David, and feel much more confident with the software I have been given for my university degree having had the sessions. Very helpful and reassuring, and didn't move onto the next bit of information until I was comfortable to do so. He also recommended additional extensions and methods as we progressed through the sessions to improve quality-of-life when using the software. Thank you for all the help, it is much appreciated!!
