The human eye can't see UV light, so I guess it is converted to visible light when used as a backlight. But here's an article about someone experimenting with a UV light to desinfect their keyboard: http://www.pcworld.com/article/237186/can_a_uv_light_kill_the_stuff_growing_on_your_keyboard.html http://www.pcworld.com/article/237186/can_a_uv_light_kill_th...

- agumonkey 11y agoThanks I think I confused backlit keyboards with this.
- bdcravens 11y agoI was thinking the same think. My toothbrush (Phillips SonicCare) has a UV light in the compartment that holds the toothbrush heads. Would it be possible for keyboards to have something similar? (for the many that have LEDs, perhaps some sort of UV light that activates while keyboard is idle.. probably wouldn't kill all bacteria, but at least some, similar to toothbrush)
