[MotorVib]

Hello

I am looking for a key board table working height if someone is standing and what would the display height. Can anyone help me?

Thank You

Although based on a commercial product, there's a lot of useful ergonomic information in this document:

That should cover it, for a fix height 40 in or 1,575 mm for a key board.

You might find some real life examples - try them out - and measure what works best.

Something adjustable would be nice. Some people are 6'-4'' and some are 5'-2''. Big difference.

I agree w/MiketheEngineer.
Only you can determine the correct height for you.

For many years, I stood or used a high stool at a classic four- poster drafting table.

When I transitioned to computers, I just put the keyboard on the table, and cantilevered the monitor maybe 10" above that on a little platform built of plywood and aluminum pipe.

Comfortable enough for many full days of programming.
