Ergonomic

Steering a wheelchair can be a strenuous, inefficient process, in that you have to brake with one rear wheel while pushing harder on the other. A clever new chair addresses that problem in a brilliant fashion, by using a moveable backrest to steer.

If you don't want a part of your body to get sore, then that part shouldn't be pushing against something that doesn't move with it. That's the thinking behind the vabsRider bicycle saddle, the two sides of which pivot in time with your pedaling.

Nobody likes getting a sore bum when cycling. The Air Seat is made with that fact in mind, as it adds what is described as a "full-floating" coil suspension system to existing saddles.

Sitting at an office desk all day, every day is generally considered to be bad for our health. Standing desks are here to get you on your feet while working, but the Dual Lift Standing Desk is designed to give your screen an extra lift as well.

We've certainly seen some unusual bicycle seats over the years, all designed to boost either comfort or performance. The SaddleSpur is claimed to do both, via a strange sticky-uppy bit in the back.

Movably Pro is intended to be more than an ergonomic desk chair. It’s designed to allow you to move more and get work done without disrupting focus, so you can work while sitting, standing, or "go flamingo."

Shoes with lots of cushioning may be nice and comfy, but they're not ideal for all situations. Wahu shoes are designed with that fact in mind, as their built-in pneumatic cushioning system can be switched between three different levels as needed.

It was back in 2014 that we first heard about the Chairless Chair, a lower-body exoskeleton that doesn't impede walking, but that also supports the wearer when they go into a sitting position. Well, there's now a lighter, comfier model.

When using clipless pedals, proper adjustment of the shoe cleats is crucial not just to optimum performance, but also to the avoidance of injuries. A new device known as the Cleat Key is designed to make sure they're at the right rotational angle.

Last year, German Bionic revealed a fourth generation of its Cray X exoskeleton, keeping things light by employing a carbon fiber frame. Now the 5th gen has been announced, which is reported to be the first of its kind to support two body regions.

Although many cyclists utilize custom insoles in their shoes, they typically just use one-size-and-shape-fits-all grips on their handlebars. German startup Personomic is out to change that, with grips that are custom-made for individual users' hands.

Although different saddle angles are better for different cycling scenarios, most riders aren't likely to stop and adjust that angle every time the terrain changes. Aenomaly Constructs' SwitchGrade, however, allows them to do so quickly and easily.
