The invention relates to a combination of an input device for a computing device and a set of support elements, wherein the set of support elements includes at least two support elements, wherein the combination includes fasteners to fasten any number of support elements of the set of support elements to the input device, wherein the support elements are fastenable to the input device at a location on the input device to set a tilt angle of the input device, and wherein the set of support elements is configured such that a single support element can be fastened to the input device and such that a plurality of support elements can be fastened to the input device as a stack of support elements thereby allowing to set different tilt angles of the input device.

An information handling system touchscreen display detects touches at a touch detection surface as inputs to the information handling system based in part upon periodical calibrations performed by a touch controller. An embedded controller detects placement of a keyboard on the touchscreen display and in response commands the touch controller to cease the periodic calibrations for at least the portion of the touchscreen display on which the keyboard is placed. For instance, the embedded controller interfaces with a Hall sensor disposed under the touchscreen display that detects a magnet integrated in the keyboard. At removal of the keyboard, the embedded controller commands the touch controller to perform a calibration to update touch detection.

An IHS (Information Handling System) may support a variety of types of peripheral devices that may each be customized for operation by a specific user. Embodiments provide management of peripherals devices based on the context of the use of the IHS by the specific user. Upon detecting a login by a user, a plurality of peripheral device settings associated with that user are retrieved from a remote management service. A context of use of the IHS is determined based in part on the physical configuration of the IHS, applications that are currently in use, and other indicators of a mode of operation of the IHS. Based on the context of use and the peripherals coupled to the IHS, settings are selected from the user's retrieved peripheral device settings. The peripheral devices are configured based on the selected settings.

An example electronic device cover includes a body component to attach to an electronic device. The body component articulates among a first, second, and third configuration. The body component includes a first section to attach to the electronic device. A second section attaches to the first section, bends with respect to the first section, and provides structural support to the electronic device in the second configuration. A third section attaches to the second section, and bends with respect to the second section. A fourth section attaches to the third section and includes a rotatable data port. An input device attaches to the fourth section and is operatively connected to the data port. The input device is to be held against and face the electronic device in the third configuration. The body component constrains the electronic device within a perimeter boundary of the fourth section in the first and third configurations.

Examples apparatus, systems, articles of manufacture and methods to adjust a keyboard position are disclosed. An example keyboard position adjustment system includes a keyboard orientation detector to determine a first keyboard position of a keyboard and/or a hand position detector to determine a hand position near the keyboard. The example system also includes an adjuster to move the keyboard to a second keyboard position based on the first keyboard position and/or the hand position.

An adjustable keyboard includes a driving element, a first plate, a second plate and a plurality of keys. The second plate is disposed between the first plate and the keys, wherein the second plate has a plurality of key openings and the keys are respectively aligned with the key openings. The driving element is configured to drive the first plate to move, and thus a plurality of first guide portions on the first plate respectively push a plurality of second guide portions on the second plate so as to move the second plate and adjust the distance between each of the keys and the corresponding key opening.

Keyboards are disclosed that are retractable. Movable magnetic or mechanical linkage elements are configured to reposition keycaps and stabilizers between different relative positions. Structures in a movable layer can act on the keycaps or stabilizers to move the keycaps and stabilizers into a retracted position for storage and for saving space in an electronic device. The stabilizers can be scissor mechanisms, butterfly mechanisms, and similar devices. The movable layer can be moved in response to rotation of a hinge or other mechanical element in the electronic device.

A keyboard device is applied to an electronic apparatus and includes a main body, a connection base, a first tilt sensor, a second tilt sensor, and a processor. The connection base is rotatably connected to the main body and configured to detachably be engaged to the electronic apparatus. The first tilt sensor is disposed on the main body and configured to generate first tilt data. The second tilt sensor is disposed on the connection base and configured to generate second tilt data. The processor is electrically connected to the first tilt sensor and the second tilt sensor, and is configured to calculate angle difference data according to the first tilt data and the second tilt data.

A medical treatment system comprising a housing; a recess defined by the housing; and a keyboard connected to the housing by a mechanism configured to permit the keyboard to move between: a deployed position in which the keyboard is disposed outside of the recess at an angle of 10 to 80 relative to a front surface of the housing; and a stored position in which the keyboard is at least partially disposed in the recess and keys of the keyboard are exposed for use by a user.

The present invention extends adjustable keyboard components. A user can selectively adjust height, tilt, and other keyboard positioning aspects (e.g., pitch, tilt, roll, yaw etc.), to accommodate the specific preferences and/or physical or anatomical characteristics of the user. Keyboard adjustments can tailor a solid foundational position for the user's fingers and hands. The keyboard can include separate left and right modules. Adjustability and separability facilitate highly variable and independent movement of the user's left and right hands. Adjustments and re-adjustments allow a user to make a wide range of alterations to their typing position at any point in time based on circumstances and comfort. As such, adjustments and re-adjustments can (potentially significantly) reduce discomfort and/or injuries associated with repetitive motion.
