Key grip - This lateral pinch grip style,
typically used for objects such as keys,
primarily uses the muscles of the thumb
opposing the curled fingers .
A
key goal of contouring is to reduce the amount of
grip force needed to hold the device .
Beyond helping with ergonomics,
texture is key for processability and efficiency .
