Microsoft's Pressure-Sensitive Keyboard : A Whole new way of typing


The pressure-sensitive keyboard Microsoft has cooking up promises to make your typing far more efficient,but it still is a prototype.

For example by using the keyboard we can change the font size by applying a variable pressure on the key and typing errors could be reduced by gauging the pressure applied to simultaneously pressed keys in order to determine intent. A varied pressure on the key would be making gaming experience much more interesting.

Microsoft will be showing off the technology at the User Interface Software and Technology conference taking place in Canada this October.At the conference, students will be given a sample keyboard and asked to compete with one another in an effort to find applications for the technology that are useful, well implemented or creative.
