The Keys of Optimus Keyboard

Do you want a keyboard that can change the way it looks according to the application running? Let say if you are using Photoshop, the following keys will be displayed.

Instead, if you are playing games, these keys will be shown.

The Optimus 103 keyboard is such a keyboard that will change the display of the keys along with the programs. Now you can work with your software more easily. The best thing about this keyboard is that it’s Operating System independent and it’s fully-customizable as each key is programmable. Self Development Kid( SDK) will be available for you to develop and design your very own keys.

I personally like this concept very much. It makes us happier than ever when we are typing. But I thing I doubt is how much of time will a user be looking at the keyboard, especially those users who can type without looking at the keyboard. By the way, I think it’s beautiful design will attract the users eye. Maybe the users can look at the keyboard while waiting for some long processes.
