Art Lebedev Shows Off New Keyboard with LCD Screen
@ 2008/06/02Art Lebedev, a design studio from Russia primarily known for its Optimus keyboards with in-key screens, has unveiled a concept of its Optimus Popularis keyboard, which should become more affordable than existing Optimus Maximus and make the concept of keyboards with in-key screens more widespread overall.
The chief of the studio – Artemy Lebedev – said that the new Optimus Popularis keyboard features one large touch-screen underneath primary keys. The predecessor of Popularis – Optimus Maximus – featured OLED screens inside each key, but since it costs a lot to make, end-users have to pay more than $1800 for a single keyboard.
