Adaptive and accessible tech is becoming more common, but its still not quite there yet.
Even left-handed mice are a rarity.
A sit-stand desk, ergonomic keyboard, and perfectly-adjusted monitor arm are essential, and common in corporate offices.

But at home, few of us want to spend thousands of dollars on a perfect desk setup.
In fact, few of us even have the space to do it.
But why shouldnt we customize our peripherals?
Perhaps its a failure of marketing that keeps us from doing the same for mice and other peripherals.
We might look to the kitchen for an example here.
Oxos Good Grips range is designed for people who may have trouble using conventional kitchen gadgets.
They feature oversized grips and clever designs, and are so good that theyve become a mainstream staple.
Imagine if accessible mice, game controllers, and so on were sold in the same way.
We might all be a lot more comfortable at work.
