Virtual Laser Keyboard Now Available

[PV5150]

I-Tech have released their virtual laser keyboard. It certainly promotes portability, but, will it be a flash in the pan or technology that can be properly utilised? Feel free to comment below...

Funnily I was just looking @ this on a retailers website today.

Nice idea but ultimately rubbish methinks. Without keys that you can feel and press down on, not only will you make a lot of typo's - but prolly end up hurting your fingers a lot too.

It seems like it would be rather awkward with no key tension or anything.

It's cool and all but I don't see it being that great of a keyboard. Seems like it would be awkard typing because you can't feel the keys when you hit them thus making you mees up me thinks.

Would be cool if you could magnify the buttons and project them on to a wall tho

Lol, you could type by throwing a ball at the keys on the wall.

Or play keyboard 'twister' by projecting it on the floor

they have had this for over 2 yrs @ thinkgeek.com pretty sure that it was compatable with most blueberry and windows mobile phones as well.

yep pretty sure I've seen this before but as you said for use with texting on mobile phones...bit of a hassle to set up for a phone imho but might help with people like me who have 'fat finger' syndrome...

What are you supposed to hit people/the computer (when it stops working) with now .

 

[Toxcity]

No keys no sale..

I have seen these about but would never get one.. Can't feel the keys can't play the games..

Actually I've been talking to someone who studies medecine and this would be a nifty thing to have in an operating room, if they were modern and used computers at all.

The problem is that everything in the operating room has to be sterile, so I was thinking they could use this thing to project the keyboard on a throwaway panel, type in the patient's status, weight and stuff...

The blood splatter might confuse the keyboard though. We'll see.

Imagine this combined in one unit with a computer a mini projector.

Ultimate portable!
