Brief

Redesign the keyboard with ergonomic principles and modern layouts to improve typing efficiency and user comfort.

Understanding the Pain Points

The QWERTY layout came from old typewriters. It was designed to stop the type bars from jamming when people typed fast. Today, we no longer have that problem, so we can design keyboards that are more efficient and comfortable to use.

Redesign with Adaptive Control

This concept replaces traditional key presses with slide gestures for faster input. A modular customizable screen lets users assign, swap, and visualize shortcuts, creating a flexible and ergonomic typing experience.
