Session Types
Activity sessions. Complete health & wellbeing breaks performed at the desk, consisting of a brief set of stretches/exercises, followed by health, safety & environment (HSE) advice (e.g. ergonomics), and a progress update. They typically take 3-5 minutes, ideally performed 2-4 times per day.
Micro-pauses. Brief 'mini' rest breaks, typically just 1 or 2 stretches/exercises and 1 ergonomic advice entry. Typically takes 30 seconds or less, and used frequently, triggered as breaks from long stretches of keyboard/mouse activity.
Bullet-breaks. Simple text/icon based health reminders that appear periodically to remind you to think of your health and wellbeing at all times. Users do not need to stop working, they simply fade in with a health/ergo/stretch suggestion and then fade away.

DeskActive Session Scheduling
- Politely reminds the user when sessions are due.
- Includes options to 'snooze' the session.
- If the user is busy, the DeskActive reminder will disappear and remind them again later.
- Calendar scheduling. Sessions can also be driven on a weekly calendar schedule, with specific time-of-day and day-of-the-week settings.
DeskActive notification politely reminds users when sessions are due.
Keyboard / Mouse Monitoring
DeskActive monitors keyboard and mouse usage rates, and can start a session, micro-pause or bullet-break based on this.
Triggers can occur every time the user reaches a certain number of keystrokes / mouse-moves, or can occur if the user has been using the keyboard / mouse constantly for a prolonged period without a break.
DeskActive keyboard and mouse usage monitor can trigger sessions.
