AntiRSI: Prevent Repetitive Strain Injuries with Personalized Reminders and Analysis

Free and open-source software to prevent RSI, featuring reminders to take breaks, exercises, and analysis of computer usage patterns.

What is AntiRSI?

AntiRSI is an open-source program developed to help prevent repetitive strain injuries (RSI) for people who spend long hours using computers. It has a variety of features aimed at encouraging better computer usage habits.

The software reminds you to take frequent short breaks from the computer. It will pop up an alert letting you know it's time to stand up, stretch, walk around, etc. The timing of the break reminders is customizable based on your preferences.

AntiRSI also guides you through simple exercises and stretches you can do to relieve muscle tension and eyestrain. Illustrated images demonstrate the exercises. The software tracks your progress with the exercises.

Additionally, it monitors your keyboard and mouse usage to analyze how intensely you are working at the computer. AntiRSI generates reports showing your daily and weekly computer activity, time spent typing versus using the mouse, and more. This lets you identify bad habits.

The program is free, open-source, and available for Windows, Linux and macOS. It is designed to protect computer users against occupational overuse syndrome with its combination of break reminders, guided stretches, and computer usage tracking.
