dc.description.abstractMany computer workstations are impractical for people living with disabilities and impairments. Relevant disabilities include low vision and/or musculoskeletal disorders making it nearly impossible to maneuver computer monitors to a desirable position. Past ME450 students have developed a powered arm that can electronically adjust the position of a monitor; however the design is bulky and unappealing. Thus, our goal is to design a system that is robust, cost effective, easy to manufacture, and elegant to package and install in special Ergopod workstations as seen at computing sites around campus.en
