At least one embodiment of the disclosed system is directed to a computer-implemented method for operating a light projection technology keyboard of an Information Handling System. The computer-implemented method may include receiving electronic environmental condition data at a keyboard configuration system, and processing the electronic environmental condition data through a neural network of an adaptive configuration engine. The neural network may output one or more functions and/or visual settings to be used in configuring operation of the light projection technology keyboard. The light projection technology keyboard may be controlled based on the one or more functions and/or visual settings output by the neural network. Other embodiments of this aspect include corresponding computer systems, apparatus, and computer programs recorded on one or more computer storage devices, each configured to perform the actions of the methods.

A keyboard using temporal evaluation of timestamps. The keyboard changes the functions of keys based the temporal relation of key events on home row. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

A switch is constituted by a movable conductive portion and a pair of fixed conductive portions. The fixed conductive portions are arranged on a substrate, and are each constituted by at least one strip member. A first main conductive pattern and a second main conductive pattern are arranged on the substrate in correspondence with the fixed conductive portions. The movable conductive portion electrically shorts the pair of fixed conductive portions upon coming into contact with both of them. The strip members that constitute the fixed conductive portions each have a first end portion and a second end portion in the extending direction, and the end portions are electrically connected to the corresponding main conductive patterns.

A keyboard with at least some double action keys is described. The keyboard includes at least two layers disposed below the keys and the keys are selectively used to make contacts on one layer, or pass through and provide contacts with or on the second layer. All or at least some of the keys of the keyboard can be pushed partially down to generate a first command and can be pushed fully down for generating a second command.
