So when I'm angry it can TYPE IN ALL CAPS AUTOMATICALLY!
Other than that, adding pressure sensitivity to a keyboard isn't innovation, finding a good use for it is.
- ars 17y agoIt's good for games. I can also see a use for keyboard shortcuts: Press lightly to delete a letter, a little harder a word, harder still a line, and really hard for a paragraph. 4 levels of modulation might be too much for accurate use, but three should be workable.
- rbanffy 17y agoI can think of modulating auto-repeat. But not much more...
- sharpn 17y agoIt's not a computer keyboard, but there is a good use for this that's been around for years - midi piano keyboards.
- jerf 17y agoMIDI keyboards taught me that this channel is very hard to use effectively, even with tons of keyboarding experience. It's cute, but I'd need a lot of convincing it's very useful.
- jodrellblank 17y agoI would save up system notifications, so when you're really in the swing of typing and REALLY FURIOUS, your system would freeze momentarily and a cheerful avatar would popup and ask you about updating your antivirus program or tell you you have unused icons on your desktop. hehehe.
- SwellJoe 17y agoMy Windows box already does that.
- jsomers 17y agoMaybe it could be used to reduce typos--when I mistakenly hit "K" on my way to "P", I bet I do it with less force (at least most of the time).
- harpastum 17y agoYou might want to just try a different brand of regular keyboard--different models require different amounts of force to register a keystroke.
