Have you guys ever seen this?

What is it? A switch with some cushion?

Never seen before.

Thanks

it looks like an upside down dome used as a spring.  i've seen it used before, but i don't recognize these particular switches.

This is from an old Compaq keyboard.

Thanks.

some old compaq keyboards use capacitive switches, this may be one of them.
