Hasta La Ideas

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Apple Keyboard, but I hate the fingerprint marks that my daily usage leaves on it. According to a research the amount of germs found on the keyboard is 60 times more than that on the toilet! To take care of these two issues we have here the UVLightBoard concept. The keyboard uses a transparency panel as the main structure.

The technology used is of microstructures on an optical light guide that gives it the perfect illumination for buttons. This means users can type comfortably in any condition. The UV light guided inside UVLightBoard will irradiate germs adhered to the panel and sterilize it by the FTIR phenomenon.

The UVLight Board is a 2014 iF Design Awards – Concept Design entry.

Designer: Mu-Chern Fong

Wow Clear is a keyboard cover that magnifies the letterings and also provides OLED backlighting. The concept germinated from the thought process that as we age our eyesight gets weaker and we resort to vision corrections. This keyboard cover helps you view the keys better and customizes the colors according to your fancy! What quirky fun!

Wow Clear is a 2012 TISDC finalist.

Designers: Yu-Cheng Lin, Wei-Hsiang Tang & Yen-Kai Chiu

This E-inkey Keyboard Concept is pretty awesome if you ask me. Imagine using e-ink screens as keyboard buttons that allow us to use different layouts and customize keys as per our needs or program we are using at that moment! The use of E-ink technology gives it the power saving edge as well as the option of being wireless. Simply love it, what about you?

Crafty people with nimble fingers would love this. Lazerwood makes thin wood veneers that turn those slick aluminum keys into rich, tactile wood. Time consuming yes but the results look amazing. Each piece is laser cut so if anything is off, you have no one to blame but your hands. Available in walnut or cherry for all MacBook unibody models and wireless keyboards with English layouts. Would any of you do this? Maybe we can do a giveaway for someone willing to try.

Babis a pensé cette sculpture appelée « Hedonismy Trojaner » en résine et en touches de clavier d’ordinateur. Cette représentation du Cheval de Troie est une métaphore de notre rapport à une utilisation d’Internet hédoniste, mais qui nous dévoile aux yeux des autres. Plus d’images dans la suite.
