So, long story short, I have vision problems, and I need to work closely with my monitor. So I’d like to have a solution where I can grab my monitor and pull it close to my face for use, and push it back over the desk when I am done with it. I don’t really know what what I’m looking for is called, or if anything like this even exists. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable in the subject than I am can help me out here.
While I am at it, I am hoping to replace my monitor as well. I would like it if the monitor had a harder material on the screen, rather than the fragile feeling plasticy stuff that computer monitors are normally made of, since my nose frequently bumps the screen, resulting in me needing to clean it often.
Once I remove my current monitor, I will have two displayport ports and one HDMI open on my card.
I am hoping to find a solution that costs less than three-thousand dollars. But with niche hardware like this, I understand that it may be more expensive.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thanks for reading my post and considering helping me out!
Yes! Some of their items look like exactly what I need. They have a lot of information about the distance that they can move too.
My desk is a little bit on the depthy side at around 23 inches, and I haven’t seen anything that looks quite long enough yet, which makes sense, since at some point you’d be battling with physics, but realistically, I could just drill a hole into the center of my desk and put one of these in, right?
Assuming you can work out any glare/coating issues a standard “arm” and some kind of protective sheet may work.
The handles for moving it and the sheet to give you something to “clean” when it needs it or replace without having to buy a new monitor or move up to the durable/expensive line of products.
