Spoločnosť Apple already in March/March she showed that she is not afraid to experiment even with such elements as keyboards and the new MacBook is proof of that. Namely, its keyboard, which is extremely thin and typing on it feels completely different than on my 13″ Airi. However, the novelty can only be a kind of intermediate stage between the existing keyboards and the novelty that you Apple patented in 2011. The company patented the so-called "Fusion Keyboard", which combines the function and design of a traditional MacBookthis keyboard with function trackpadand current trends indicate that this is exactly the thing that could become a part of it in the future MacBooku.
Smaller touch layers are placed in the individual keys, but they work as a whole and can recognize whether you are performing a gesture on the keyboard or just entering a certain letter. This is how the keyboard would be able to recognize whether you are scrolling on page v Safari or, for example, you zoom. Alternatively, you could double-tap two keys to zoom in on a specific part of the page, as you now do with trackpadat. The company states that the keyboard could either be integrated into MacBookon the one hand, it could be available as a wireless keyboard for the iMac, thanks to which it could be a successor to today's Wireless Keyboard. It will probably be updated this year and enriched with new visuals and backlighting, which would definitely please.
What is definitely surprising is that the keyboard also takes into account the new Force Touch feature. It is already mentioned here that the keys would be able to detect the force with which the user presses a given key and, based on this, a secondary function could either be invoked. In this way, the function keys (Fn) could completely disappear from the system, for example screenshot we could do without having to press three different keys. This would mean that the mechanism would support two positions, not just one, which means that it would be able to detect two levels of compression, just like the Force Touch technology on MacBooku.
