Abstract
Dette afgangsprojekt udvikler et produkt til den unge esportsindustri med en vision om at gøre gaming mere “sporty”. Branchen vokser hurtigt, men udstyret har ikke fulgt med kravene til spillernes fysiske belastning, og mange oplever skader, som kan forkorte karrieren. I modsætning til mange traditionelle sportsgrene er esportsudstyr sjældent specialiseret til at understøtte de hurtige bevægelser og den gentagne belastning, kroppen udsættes for. Projektet sigter mod at reducere risikoen for typiske skader i “musearm” (belastningsskader i håndled og underarm fra brug af computermus). Produktet ‘Titan’ erstatter den traditionelle mus med et mere professionelt perifert input-device målrettet det kompetitive online-spil League of Legends på PC. Titan er udviklet med biomekaniske principper for at minimere den konstante muskelbelastning uden at gå på kompromis med spillernes krav til ydeevne.
This graduation project develops a product for the young esports industry with a vision to make gaming more “sporty.” The field is growing fast, but equipment has not kept pace with the physical demands on players, and many experience injuries that can shorten their careers. Unlike many traditional sports, esports gear is rarely specialized to support rapid movements and the repeated strain placed on the body. The project aims to reduce the risk of common “mouse arm” injuries (repetitive strain in the wrist and forearm from mouse use). The product, ‘Titan,’ replaces the traditional mouse with a more professional peripheral input device targeted at competitive League of Legends on PC. Titan is designed using biomechanical principles to minimize constant muscle load without compromising the high performance requirements of players.
