Alienware launches the world's largest mechanical keyboard + mouse, which can only be used by the five members of the "Dota2" Team Liquid team.
Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen OC_Formula for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, Nov. 12 (Xinhua)-- Alien Alienware has created a 16-foot mechanical keyboard and mouse (14:1 scale) that is a marketing gimmick but actually works.
The ▲ picture is taken from Team Liquid Dota's official YouTube in order to demonstrate its function, the aliens even let the Team Liquid team use it for several DOTA 2 games. Of course, this super-large keyboard and mouse combination requires the joint efforts of many people, such as 2 people operating the mouse and 3 people operating the keyboard.
CTOnews.com Note: the keyboard and mouse are actually prototypes, and aliens created this project by scanning it and zooming it in to 14:1. Each button is one foot long and has a 4-inch stroke, some of which are printed in 3D, but some have to be made by hand.
The alien AW420K, originally a 87-key mechanical keyboard based on the Cherry MX axis, is now displayed at Dell Mall for 1499 yuan.
For the 14-time monster, they customized their own custom linear mechanical drives for each shaft with PVC, and each key can produce an iconic mechanical keystroke through a piece of metal belt mounted at the bottom of the shaft.
