Since this channel is gaining traction, here since 200 subs! This is something revolutionary to the keyboarding scene and at first I thought it was just a concept but it is now turned into a kickstarter project(early bird also lol) Very promising to see something so modular, customizable, and functional to different softwares/games that it just makes sense to invest in something like this. Don't get me wrong but as nice as custom keebs, it's mainly just for aesthetics and THOCKINESS. This is something along the lines of the "*touchscreen with a mechanical twist*".
@@Chris-dy1cb have a look at the razer switchblade concept from 2011. I've been waiting for something like that ever since I first saw it 12 years ago.
Very cool product, I hope the screen will show some kind of feedback when we press a key to indicate that it's pressed so that we can see it not just feel it. Also this feature has to be optional too
@@xguysOG idk it could be better than traditional mechanical keyboards! as long as it doesn't feel like a membrane (which it doesn't sound like atleast) It might even seem to have less pre and post travel which would make it quite accurate for gaming (as long as it has a set actuation point that isnt near the bottom of the key stroke)
Das könnte massiv genial werden, wenn: 1. Die Tastaturhaptik muss einer guten Cherry-Tastatur oder einem guten Logitech-Keyboard entsprechen 2. Das Anschlagverhalten muss obigen tastaturen entsprechen 3. Tastaturbeschriftung unter statt auf den Tasten wird sicherlich gewöhnungsbedürftig sein Ich bin jedenfalls massiv gespannt!
This technology is seriously possible. You basically make a literal iPad but the whole OS is just a keyboard, then you make a transparent layer for the keys but add a type of synthetic membrane that would touch the touchscreen at one side of the transparent keyboard layer. Any company can make it true. We have the tech already
What will be the difference in the linear and tactile models? I'm asking because the switches are analog? What is "superior" version? I like tactile boards but wouldn't mind going linear for this one if it means a shoddy tactile experience.
Very subjective, the prototype force curves are on the website under specs, I would say for gaming with linear function probably linears, typing and general use probably tactile, you can buy both frames and swap between them if you want.
Congratulations it looks really great! :D I would have if possible just one question: since the image of the keys is on the monitor while the physical key has a certain height in order to see correctly aligned the image with its corresponding key I have to be exactly at a certain angle from the keyboard or to what extent, even if not positioned exactly in front of the keyboard I can recognize the various keys? Thank you and excuse me for my English :P
How customizable is it? Can I make my own layout with exactly the buttons I want? Can I search for a sign and get it typed or get the key combination to light up? Can I buy some layouts? Can I program it myself so that for example Ctrl + Alt makes the Delete button light up as a recommendation? Can people make their own layouts and sell them via your store for others to test?
Hi Martin, thanks for your questions. The Flux Keyboard is very customisable! You can create your own backgrounds and layouts and upload to the Flux Keyboard using our Flux Polymath software, and also customise your own key mappings through the software. Possibly in the future we will introduce a store where people can make layouts and sell them online.
Hi, we are currently in the process of manufacturing the Flux Keyboard! You can pre-order on our website for delivery in April 2024 www.fluxkeyboard.com
@nameX nameX it uses levitated tactile keys so they have velocity senstivity i would assume programable it all depends on how the software works and if there is a Hardware system inside the keyboard to make it function like a tablet and not software controlled, THIS is they MAJOR issue with a lot of the keyboards that had Onboard graphical keys, I wanted an Optimus keyboard for like YEARS but it never really came to market properly THIS i'll be backing for sure, 540 Aus Diggery dollars is good for what it in and for me i play a space sim with a tactile keyboard already this keyboard looks like a MASSIVE upgrade in style and performance, (the current gen model of my current keyboard also use maglev) i onlky want to know how far they will go with modules as all of this comes in to the exsact interface i want for my simulation just need to know the graphical side will be custom too.
Not an ipad, more a keyboard with clear keys so you can see the screen display at the back and customise layout. Please visit our website for more details fluxkeyboard.com/
If this is an elgato stream deck on steroids it could be insanely useful. But honestly until third party reviews come out I’m iffy. Especially since with kickstarter they could just take the money and run.
Hi, we are shipping worldwide and you can order on Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/fluxkeyboard/flux-keyboard-the-keyboard-reinvented/description
I bet this would be at least $300? The backing screen would likely need to be OLED, and it will be very expensive to get the real product to look this clean.
@@fatenuller8128 The display is IPS. About price: "The keyboard will cost between US$299 - $350 after discounts for pre-orders with a retail price of US$450. "
Had an opportunity to ditch staggered and go ortholinear, to ditch Qwerty and showcase literally any better ergonomic layout, to ditch Ctrl on left pinky and instead place above shift like HHKB, to ditch an unnecessarily long space-bar and place alt keys within thumb reach. Could actually be interesting. As it is now though, it's just pushing novelty(although pretty cool) through a layout derivative of a ridiculously outdated and unergonomic design.
Dear Flux Team, I hope this email finds you well. I am Hexani Alexa, a content creator who has recently started making videos.
