The keyboard is a great alternative with ergonomic support offering both wired and wireless options. The idea came to fruition when the designer from Hong Kong was battling wrist pain and other discomforts along the lower back. He aimed to create a solution seamless to work to ease strain around the wrist and shoulders. As a result, the keyboard splits into [two independent parts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naya-connect-keyboard) and can be merged if needed. When separated, it eases the strain on the shoulders and also opens up space to place other work items between.
