Unicorne

Ready to type comfortably and pain-free?

The Unicorne by Boardsource is designed to help solve ergonomic problems that traditional keyboards cause, helping you work and type pain-free. By combining an ergonomic split layout, a natural column-staggered design, and customizable angles, the Unicorne ensures your wrists, hands, and shoulders stay relaxed, even during long typing sessions.

How the Unicorne is Better for Your Body

1. Split Design: Improve Posture and Reduce Strain
Standard keyboards force your hands to twist unnaturally toward the center, putting strain on your wrists and forearms. The Unicorne’s split layout allows you to position each half wherever feels most comfortable, keeping your hands at a natural shoulder-width distance. This helps reduce muscle tension and promotes a more ergonomic posture.

Why split keyboards are more ergonomic

2. Column Stagger: Typing Made Natural
Most keyboards have a row-staggered layout, which makes your fingers move more to reach each key. The Unicorne uses a column-staggered design, aligning each key with the natural path of your fingers. This reduces finger strain and fatigue, so you can type faster, more comfortably, and for longer.

Why column stagger works

3. Tenting for Optimal Comfort
Add the optional Booster Packs to tent your keyboard at a 10-degree angle. This subtle lift helps keep your wrists in a neutral position, preventing discomfort and minimizing the risk of repetitive strain injuries like RSI and carpal tunnel syndrome.
