Google showcases bizarre double-sided Japanese keyboard, which it won't sell — the keyboard uses a Möbius strip as its foundation

Google isn’t going to manufacture this device but has open-sourced the build plans, including 3D printer files.

    Google Japan makes a neat-but-useless keyboard every October 1st.

    https://hackaday.com/2023/10/07/hats-off-to-another-weird-keyboard-from-google-japan/

    There’s a super long one, one that’s a cup, one that’s a hat, and one that’s a spoon.

    Probably more that I’m not remembering.

      Yeah, I read that it’s a yearly thing. My question though, is why Oct 1?

        10/1 to celebrate the 101 key keyboard apparently? That’s what the linked article mentioned.

      Wtf, I only saw the long one before. Thanks for sharing!

      Edit: omg, the video! They even show the long keyboard in on scene. And an anime hommage with a guy running with a toast in his mouth. Hilarious.

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn’t exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

No Spam

No excessive posting/“shilling” for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

No Buy/Sell/Trade

This subreddit is not a marketplace, please post on r/mechmarket or other relevant marketplace.
