:00:12. | :00:15. | ||
forward. That is all for now. Now it is time for Click. Are you | :00:15. | :00:25. | |

sitting comfortably? Then we'll They may be portable and convenient | :00:33. | :00:39. | |
but these things can still be a pain, a real pain. This week Click | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
assesses the damage that mobile tech could be doing to our bodies | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
and we give you some tips on how to avoid it. It is not a golf buggy, | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
it is a new electric car. We Checkout the smart vehicle that can | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
give its location and availability to feature passengers. And we have | :01:00. | :01:08. | |
I just the sight for you in Webscape. Welcome to Click. I am | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
Spencer Kelly. Every time my osteopath told me into and performs | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
a move that looks like she is about to tee ah mac head from my | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
shoulders, she reminds me that sitting at a desk and using a | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
keyboard and mouse is bad for your body. You may have seen me using | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
ergonomic devices designed to prevent repetitive strain injury. | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
Have you stopped to wonder if your mobile devices are any better for | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
you? Lara Lewington looks at whether there are any ways to enjoy | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
tech without the twinges. Back in the days when we all read books and | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
newspapers and played music on the wireless, our bodies were put | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
through a reasonable range of movements. As we are increasingly | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
using tablets and smart phones for, well, pretty much everything, we're | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
spending a lot of time both typing and brooding on them and using a | :02:07. | :02:14. | |
few specific actions many times. -- and reading. There are a number of | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
issues to do with sitting at a computer for too long, not sitting | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
comfortably and not taking train brakes. Tablets and smart phones | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
have not been as long for so long. -- taking screen breaks. We have to | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
get to grips with how to enjoy them comfortably. Using these devices | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
puts our muscles and joints at a mechanical disadvantage. We work | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
harder, expend more energy. People describe a range of problems. These | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
range from pain and ageing through to tingling, pins and needles, | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
numbness, swelling, headaches. There is a range of things. The | :02:57. | :03:07. | |
head, neck, shoulders, hands and wrists. Of recent survey by the | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
Chartered Society of physiotherapists suggest that | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
people spend a further 2.5 hours on mobile devices after getting home | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
from work. It is no surprise repetitive strain injury is | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
becoming a bigger issue. Hands are a very complex system of tendons | :03:25. | :03:31. | |
and pulleys. They become inflamed and thickened. You can end up with | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
carpal tunnel, tendons running up and down the wrists and the nerves | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
get trapped. Patients wake up in the middle of the night with | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
tingling in their fingers, shaking their hands. It is what we call the | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
property. There is no instant treatment for it. -- neuropathy. | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
has been a few years since the concept of BlackBerry thumb emerged. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
It is a condition triggered by repetitive use of the thumb with | :04:04. | :04:10. | |
little involvement of other fingers. For some, like Mandy Saunders, the | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
consequences have been serious. was surprised that, just by using | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
my phone, I ended up in a position where I had surgery and was in a | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
cast for six weeks afterwards. I went to see the doctor and they did | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
diagnose repetitive strain injury initially. The tablets and things | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
that they gave me bird not working, they sent me for physiotherapy and | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
the physiotherapist said, straight away, that it was more serious than | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
a bit of medium physiotherapy and they thought I had done some proper | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
damage. After more investigation and an MRI scan, the tendon in my | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
thumb had snapped. I was using my time on the train commuting in and | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
out of London for sending e-mails. I had been given this gadget that I | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
thought was brilliant. You don't realise that something that you | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
thought was such a gift can actually end up being a curse. | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
conditions like these so-called iPad shoulder or iPad hand, which | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
could equally present themselves with any brand of Talbott, are | :05:24. | :05:33. | |
issues. The I. -- these devices are not heavy but if you hold them for | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
long enough, you can feel the strain. IPad shoulder is because it | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
is a hand-held device. For maximum visualisation, we tend to sit up | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
with the pad down at waist level. It is not the right way to do it. | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
It is not the shoulder that is affected, it is the neck. The neck | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
becomes really flexed. It pulls on the now at the top of the shoulder | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
and redevelop this terrible aching pain. It is what we call | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
periscapular pain. The postural issues are similar to those posed | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
by tablets for phones. Manufacturers realise we need to be | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
careful. Anyone who actually reads the manual has been warned. After | :06:23. | :06:29. | |
Raul, expected usage is not put down to chance. The ergonomics of | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
devices are closely monitored before they make it into the hands | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
of consumers. And I think people probably did expect sums to be used. | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
I do not think they realised how extensively they would be used. -- | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
thumbs. We are not used to using them to intensively. You end up | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
with a crooked angle. If you are stretching them across the screen, | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
it is quite unnatural and they are over-used. If you love to text or | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
use your phone, you thumb is constantly in movement. Using | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
devices this month -- a much also moons hours off-screen gazing. This | :07:12. | :07:18. | |
is not expected to cause long-term eye damage. People can get dry and | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
eyes because the blink rate goes right down. People will not blink | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
very frequently and the eye can dry quite severely. If this is not | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
enough to put you off, experts advise taking reasonable breaks and | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
making sure you are sitting comfortably. Make sure you are | :07:38. | :07:43. | |

centred above your head. -- Make sure. Bring you devise close-up to | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
eye-level so you do not flex your head and Tyra these muscles. This | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
will reduce the chance of fakes and pains. Then there are the stretches. | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
Stretch out and hold it and slowly it comes back in and that | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
strengthens the muscles. If you do the opposite with a ball, it will | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
strengthen the muscles over the front. Right the way filly to one | :08:21. | :08:29. | |
side. Law on to the shoulder. Put the left arm down hanging loose and | :08:29. | :08:36. | |
the right arm on to the head and stretch your head down. Remember | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
the 1980s, will walk like an Egyptian. Lean forwards and lean | :08:41. | :08:47. | |
backwards. Put your right arm over the inside of your fingers and | :08:47. | :08:52. | |

Lara Lewington with some handy tips to protect the tips of your hands | :09:19. | :09:27. | |
or fingers. I think that works. Tech news is next. A woman that | :09:27. | :09:32. | |

Apple's newest product is very small. A compact version of the | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
iPad could be released as early as middle October. What may be called | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
the iPad Mini will have a screen just short of eight inches, into | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
the realm of Amazon's Kindle Fire. The Samsung Galaxy S III is also | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
expected to shrink, with the Polish version anticipated. Not so small | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
footsteps of the iPhone 5. The UK is playing catch-up with the mobile | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
broadband world by bringing forward the release of 4G services. Ofcom | :10:34. | :10:39. | |

of activity as researcher's work on their new product, bee brains. The | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
way that bees smell and see is being looked at to help develop new | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
flying robots which can navigate into difficult places. These were | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
chosen because they always find their way home. I guess they are | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
not using iOS 6. Whether you own a car or depend on public transport, | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
getting to your destination on time can be a pain, especially in a big | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
city. Queuing for petrol, bad traffic, train delays, you name it, | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
I have used it as an excuse. One San Francisco start-up has | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
developed a tick ology which aims to eliminate those hassles. We | :11:57. | :12:06. | |

About one-third of all trips in the US are under five miles. That is | :13:14. | :13:19. | |

six years. It is becoming clear that companies are taking a lot | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
longer to scale. They are taking a lot more money. Cue the business | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
and moral pivot. After too many rejections, they got out of the | :15:06. | :15:10. | |

validate the technology. Google declined our interview request but | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
together they have taken a liking to lay a few features. They used | :15:35. | :15:39. | |

comes to pass you will have noticed that all smartphones are not | :17:03. | :17:11. | |
created equal. If you run and I phoned you get apse first. We did | :17:11. | :17:18. | |
not force developers to release across all platforms simultaneously, | :17:18. | :17:25. | |

friends are talking about the latest up, but as a Windows user it | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
is not available to you. Hopefully developers will bring it across | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
