Anyone looked into this? I just saw an ad for it. Adjustable actuation point?? It looks very interesting.

Very similar to a Wooting keyboard. Great to have options though.

This is the first I'm seeing of this. I love the idea of multiple actions per key press based on how far you press.

It's an insane idea in a good way. I'm using hall sensors in other applications but I've never thought about their usage in switches like this. I wonder if this also eliminates bounce and therefore the need for debounce circuitry.

I think Wooting and other companies have similar offers. I am nevertheless excited about this one because Keychron does a very good job in offering polished but customizable products.

Looks cool as heck. I won't ever get this specifically because I need a 100% keyboard (love my Q6) for both productivity and gaming, but I am definitely interested in this technology.

Keychron Q6 HE when?

I'd be interested if they made a more compact version of this - like a 65% or something.
