Input club announces keystone keyboard with analog and hall effect keys

The Input Club Keystone mechanical keyboard is an unprecedented advance in gaming and typing technology, the company says in this official announcement.

Keystone will launch on Kickstarter in June 2019

This Keystone keyboard combines two new functions: high-definition analog control and fast Hall Effect (magnetic) detection per key, for superior performance.

The Input Club says: '' Our magnetic switch technology enables nearly infinite customization, a billion-push durability (20 times the industry standard), and the benefits of analog control. Full firmware programmability and RGB lighting complete its features. This project is the future of mechanical keyboards . ''

Keystone brings together novel features to further drive the invention of keyboards with its Hall Effect SILO and high-definition analog keys. Both are separate keyboard switch technologies that have been produced in the past, but this implementation takes them to the next level, uniting the two strands.

With the Hall Effect keys, instead of relying on a bent metal piece for actuation, the keyboard follows the movement of a magnet. This allows you to change when and where the keyboard receives the signal, while providing a billion keystroke lifespan that is simply well above any conventional mechanical keyboard.

Analog detection is the ultimate future of all keyboards, and this is the true jewel in Keystone's crown. This means that the keys work like triggers, in which a half press could mean a lowercase, and a full press an uppercase, sol to give an example.

Keystone will launch on Kickstarter in June 2019 for the first backers for less than $ 100.
