Monitor arm is a convenient tool for your office. When buying any kind of computer, most people would generally only be concerned about having a monitor and some sort of stand for their monitor.
Perhaps, the most important reason for having a computer Monitor Arm is the importance of working in an ergonomic environment. By working in the ergonomic environment every piece of equipment used, whether it would be your office chair or your keyboard you type on, is tailored to be adjustable to fit the unique individual's body.
Monitor's arms are specifically designed to easily adjust the height of your computer screen and can be brought closer or farther away from your face to find the best reading position. A good rule of thumb to perfectly position your monitor is to make sure that the top of the viewable area of your display should be approximately at eye level, or in a position that is comfortable for you and does not cause you to strain your eyes in order to read what is on the screen. Ergonomic experts say that an arm's length away is a good indication to a correct viewing distance, but this may vary from user to user. This type of movement and flexibility is impossible to achieve without the use of a monitor arm.
One of the best things about monitor arm is that they can be employed by virtually anyone with any kind of computer. First and foremost, those with a desktop computer will always need to have bought a monitor, to begin with. But even laptop users, like myself, can profit from this as well. Increasingly workstations are shared between more than one user, especially for jobs that stay open all day with various shifts. In the event that you share your station at work with another colleague, with a few simple movements, the monitor can be quickly adjusted to the height and depth suitable for that individual.
