Title: From linear to clicky keys in less than a second (Prototype)
Post by: Tact Spectrum on Sun, 13 July 2025, 00:19:48

Hey guys.  I just wanted to demonstrate a prototype of a project I've been working on that may need your input.  Its a keyboard using switches that can alternate between a clicky-tactile function for typing, and a linear function for gaming.

I'd like your guys feedback on the idea.  Thx

Definitely interesting. Are the switches changing mechanically, or is it using a solenoid-type mechanism to simulate the tactility and clicky-ness?
