Google Japan unveils conveyor-belt keyboard that moves keys to fingers
Original: Google Japan shows off conveyor-belt keyboard with keys that move to fingers
Google Japan has revealed a concept keyboard built on four conveyor belts, each carrying 29 keys, designed so the keys travel to the typist's fingers instead of the other way around. The device, part of the Gboard series of experimental keyboards, is 3D-printable and aims to make one-handed typing easier. It is the latest in Google Japan's line of playful, impractical input devices that draw wide attention online each time one is released.
Why now: Google Japan's quirky experimental keyboards reliably generate online buzz, and this moving-belt design is an especially novel idea.
