Mechanical keyboards (or mechanical-switch keyboards) are computer keyboards which have an individual switch for each key. The following table is a compilation list of mechanical keyboard models, brands, and series:
Whereas Microsoft mice and Microsoft keyboards were previously controlled from two separate programs – IntelliPoint and IntelliType – the Mouse and Keyboard Center is responsible for both kinds of devices. 32- and 64-bit versions of the software are available, and the program integrates with Windows 8 and above's "Modern UI" interface.
QMK (Quantum Mechanical Keyboard [2]) is open-source firmware for microcontrollers that control computer keyboards. [3] [4] [5] The QMK Configurator is freely available software which facilitates designing keyboard layouts and then turning them into firmware files. The QMK Toolkit is freely available software which facilitates the flashing or ...
The main intent of this design was to halve the production cost of the Model F. [13] The most well known full-size Model M is known officially as the IBM Enhanced Keyboard. A classic full-size Model M keyboard with Spanish ISO key layout. In 1993, two years after spawning Lexmark, IBM transferred its keyboard operations to the daughter company.
In general, ergonomic keyboards are designed to keep the user's arms and wrists in a near-neutral position, which means the slant angle (the lateral rotation angle for the keys in each half relative to the axis of the home row in a conventional keyboard) is approximately 10 to 12.5°, the slope (the angle of the keytop surfaces starting from the front edge closer to the user towards the top of ...
It has been succeeded by Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center, which combines IntelliType with IntelliPoint. IntelliType supports all known Microsoft keyboards (including those that are shipped as parts of desktop sets, as well as entertainment keyboards – i.e. those that are intended for Media center ).
Synergy is a software application for sharing a keyboard and mouse between multiple computers. It is used in situations where several PCs are used together, with a monitor connected to each, but are to be controlled by one user. The user needs only one keyboard and mouse on the desk—similar to a KVM switch without the video.
The Model F was a series of computer keyboards produced mainly from 1981–1985 and in reduced volume until 1994 by IBM and later Lexmark. [1] Its mechanical-key design consisted of a buckling spring over a capacitive PCB, similar to the later Model M keyboard that used a membrane in place of the PCB.
