Large Key format keyboards with Finger Guides

We manufacture optical keyboards where the finger is detected by a matrix of infrared sensors, so no finger pressure is needed to type on the keyboard. So persons with Lou Gehrig's disease (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), Connective Tissue Disorder, Arthritis, CTS, and others that do not have enough finger pressure or it is uncomfortable to apply pressure can benefit from these keyboards.

They are also compact in size so they can be used on your lap, in your bed or on a bedside stand. They can also be fitted with a touch pad to one side, or in the middle of the keyboard with optical left and right touch positions. When fitted with a touch pad you can have complete control of your computer from where you're sitting or lying.

There are no nooks and crannies around keys so they can be just washed off if something is spilled on them.

And because they're optical we can personalize them to fit the person using our keyboards. You can have only the keys you want, your name, and your colors, text (a function name), hot keys (one key can input a URL, ctrl-C, etc.).

The price of the custom key text overlay is included in the price, and because there are no moving parts they will never wear out.

We also make them in any language. You send us the keys you want and we'll send you a keyboard.

**These are just a sample of what we can do**

Arrow Keys - by touching these keys the cursor will move in the direction of the arrow touched. The movement is first slow and then increases to fast movement. For accurate placement you can tap these arrows to get very small amounts of movement. Left Click - Operates as other left button mice, you can single click or double click. Double Left Click - One touch will give you a double click to open icons and files. Right Click - Operates as other right button mice. Drag - by placing the cursor over an icon then touch an arrow key will drag the icon, then once the arrow key is released the icon is fixed in position. Start Fast - by touching this key prior to an arrow key will make the cursor rapidly move across the display, then when you get close to where you are going raise your finger and tap the arrows for accurate positioning.

Large Key Keyboards $254, with removeable Finger Guides $279. The above large key layout is optimized for computer and internet access. The CAP key shifts all keys to their upper case, or to the character on the upper left of the key. This gives normal "shifted" function for the number keys, except for the 6 that has the /, the 9 that has the <, and the 0 that has the >. The sequence CAP then SP (space) gives the next key's upper right character and then reverts back to the unshifted state once that key is touched. The CAP indicator comes on when touched, then flashes if the SP is touched next. If the SP key is not touched next then the CAP indicator remains on until touches again. Other characters can be added at customers request.

New Braille PC Keyboard

Braille PC Keyboard - The 83 PKB-SA-B is only $279 and can be used at home or office. It has a full set of key touch positions with braille cells. It can be personalized with a persons name and in their colors. It is very compact, only 6.25"x12"x1", so it can travel with you to be used on any PC at school or office, and it's sealed from the top so cokes or coffee can be just washed off.

EKI uses a scanning pattern that allows for all fingers to be on the key text surface to feel for the correct braille cell, and then input of a character is made at the point of the last finger that is raised. If the person desides they do not want to input the character then they just move their finger to the lower left most position, where they can feel the corners of the keyboard and the round embossed circle, and lift their finger out of the matrix.
