Every Computer Keyboard Explained in 13 Minutes!

Two keyboards can look almost identical and feel completely different the moment you start typing. One feels soft and quiet. Another gives you a sharp click. A gaming board can measure exactly how far a key has moved before deciding what to do. That's because keyboards aren't all built around the same idea — some rely on rubber, some use individual mechanical switches, some use light or magnets, and a few barely use physical keys at all. Eight major keyboard types broken down by what's actually happening underneath the keycaps. Membrane domes that collapse to close a circuit. Scissor arms that guide laptop keys in a straight path. Mechanical switches where every key gets its own spring and personality. Optical sensors that replace metal contacts with infrared light. Hall Effect magnets that track exactly how far down your finger is. Ergonomic splits that change the shape around your body. Silicone boards you can rinse under water. And a laser projector that turns any table into a keyboard with no keys at all. -------------------------------------------------------------------- #Keyboards #MechanicalKeyboard #TechExplained #GamingKeyboard
