Static capacitance keyboard inventory, which is your food?
Many people do not understand the static capacitance keyboard. Just as before 2006, everyone was still familiar with the mechanical keyboard. In ten years, the amount of possession has turned a hundredfold.
However, compared to the explosive growth of the mechanical keyboard market, the capacitive keyboard gives a feeling of tepidness on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is on the top of the figure. On the other hand, the degree of understanding of it is not enough.
Among the five yard farmers I spoke to, three of them were coded using the electrostatic capacitance keyboard. Because of the professional relationship, the keyboard can be said to be a tool for their jobs. (Two of them were HHKB, a Plum.) There was also a Dell film that used to be used for everyday use. In fact, in some areas, the popularity of electrostatic capacitors is far higher than the market average.
1. Some people say that the price of an electrostatic capacitor keyboard is too expensive, and that one can use more than two or three mechanical keyboards. It feels completely out of touch with the mainstream market in terms of price (this sounds like how Apple's mobile phone pricing strategy). In fact, RF and HHKB prices do lead the vast majority of keyboards.

2. Some people say that static capacitance is a high-end film (you look at this plastic bowl, this is not a film? Image from Leopold FC660C - from wstx. Here I would like to say, in fact, the trigger principle of the two is completely different, ).
3. Some people say that the RF and HHBK of the electrostatic capacitor is a key emperor and is an artifact of fever. Key Huang, big brother! It's not Huang, it's not Huanghuang, it's the real key Huang!
Attach the search results of a famous medical information search site. Similar "Key Huang style" this kind of boasting of the propaganda technique I do not agree with, a bit like a few years ago the madness of the Tibetan business sense.
What kind of emperor, I think that can be applied to the physical index, and only look at the parameters of the goods, such as the once Titan Z and R9 295X2, is a dual-core card emperor belonging to N/A two, this statement is not Controversy caused everyone, the video card is to see the parameters, the best parameter is the emperor, this is nothing to be misunderstood.
But the keyboard, this stuff, feels very different, personal experience is also different from person to person, not the highest price is worthy of the name of the key emperor, electrostatic capacitance may feel good, but the key word can be ignored.
4. Some people say that the feeling of the electrostatic capacitance keyboard is slagged by the mechanical keyboard second. (Have you ever seen a slag on the second side, and it's still a key to the keyboard?)
Some people like green, some like tea, and even more fine points. Some people like the Gadalon green axis, and some people like cherry red. So, some people think that electrostatic capacitance is very good.
Touching this thing is really something that can resonate but it is difficult to convince others.
So you can't say that the cherry blue shaft can roll the high special black shaft so that it doesn't need to be. The shaft body is the same, and the electrostatic capacitance is also self-contained.
Then let's first understand what is the static capacitive keyboard:
The interior of the electrostatic capacitance keyboard also has a rubber bowl-like structure, which is very similar to the membrane keyboard. Static capacitance is the use of capacitance changes to determine the key to open and close, after pressing the button, the capacitance of the switch capacity changes to achieve the trigger.
Unlike the membrane keyboard, which has only a silicone bowl, there is also a spring inside the silicone bowl of the electrostatic capacity keyboard. Different materials constitute different trigger sensations, and the combination of the two results in a more detailed and rich typing feeling than the thin film keyboard. At present, the relatively high-end electrostatic capacity is required to ensure consistency of the feel of each key. Therefore, the materials used are very sophisticated and therefore costly.
Things are rare and expensive. It is not only that some people are willing to pay high prices for niche products. In fact, it is not easy to maintain the production of niche products.
Speaking of the development of electrostatic capacitors, there are many similarities with mechanical keyboards.
In fact, both the mechanical keyboard and the electrostatic capacitor keyboard are very old keyboard technology. Because of the high price and cost, the market for both mechanical and electrostatic capacitors is very small after the membrane keyboard is rapidly swallowed by the ultra-low price advantage, because the cost cannot be reduced.
This is one of the reasons why the cherry keyboard of 20 or 30 years ago does not look very different from the current one, because it is the choice of a niche or the procurement of banks and other companies. There is no need to be very fancy.
But with today's quest for extreme touch and increased income levels, thousands of keyboards are not very distant and expensive. The price of the mechanical keyboard Due to the patent expiration of the cherry MX axis, domestically made shafts have already broken Cherry's monopoly, so the price has dropped to a drop, but the difference between the electrostatic capacitance keyboard and the mechanical keyboard is still very large. Topre was still a de facto product monopoly.
So don't look at topre corporation's popularity in the country is far inferior to that of cherry, but people's monopoly status in the field of electrostatic capacitance keyboard does not know where to go than cherry clever. The patent term for cherries here is continued for one second
MIJ (made in the mud country) cost bonus. With elegant materials, feel can be maintained for a long time.
A brief introduction to several representative products of static capacitance brands (the older BTC would not say)
On the one hand, it is cost, and on the other hand, this one obviously lacks a competition mechanism and there are two switches. Therefore, as long as a price alliance is reached, it is difficult to lower prices.
However, domestic static capacitors have already been available in the past few years and will be mentioned below.
The first three topre systems: Electro Capacitive Non-Contact Switch technology schematics (topre systems are not compatible with the MX axis key caps, except for the cold and purple ones that are discontinued, and can only be paired with a special key cap.) It's hard to do on the keycap DIY.)
1. Defensive front / Topre Realforce 104UB reference price 1599
If HHKB is the exclusive equipment of the code farmer, then Topre Realforce is the normal keyboard for Windows users. In the mainland, Topre is the best selling RF, and many people begin to understand electrostatic capacitance through the RF keyboard. The characteristic is that there is a divisional pressure version, and the pressure of the keypad pressed by the little finger will be smaller. Below is a schematic diagram of partition pressure.
2.Leopold FC660C 66-key electrostatic capacitor keyboard with Topre program Korean brand, Topre partner, small form factor, easy to carry the two keys in the upper right corner looked very magic Reference price 1460
3. Cool Cold Purple Star has been discontinued. 87 key products, the advantage is to be able to change the mechanical keyboard cross keycaps, the disadvantage is that it is very easy to dirty, there are many easy to buy you will know. Reference price: 1399
Then there is Fujitsu's HHKB (Happy Hacking Keyboard)
1. HHKB Pro2 Type-S white muted version reference price 1999
This code is more used for agriculture and it has indeed been optimized. Used by ordinary Windows users, it is difficult to adapt. But in the professional field, the amount of this keyboard is still very large, not as cold as its price.
Inserting a quotation does not represent my opinion.
Minfox: "HHKB's clear goal + excellent design + excellent performance + low sales - it is a small and capable tool, but also a beautiful and beautiful toy, made a lot of considerations for VIM and EMACS, and at the same time the ultimate streamlined keys. The cost of positioning, capacitance, and cost of production in Japan is more expensive than that of ordinary capacitive keyboards. Obviously it is normal.
Another typical failure case is POKER, a group of people who do not know the so-called people, I do not know the key column of the so-called unknown use, you can not find this keyboard why the software or the game or application design, can not find it why The crowd developed, pure toys and masochism in use. â€
Then there are several models of A large series, A big people, admurder, 12 years determined to do the domestic static capacitance keyboard, the results will be available two years later,
The basic principle and structure of its works are the same as those of Topre, and some improvements have been added to meet the current use environment. The feature is that the price is very close to the people, the whole key is not rushed, and all are compatible with the cross keycap.
Admurder has cooperated with RK and Noppo to launch electrostatic capacitance products and established their own brand Plum Plume and NiZ (MD, you have to ask me how Topre developed, I can't tell why, but as for just starting out A big admurder , people who know about peripherals still know a lot.)
1. Noppoo EC108-Pro key line separation design, global 35g pressure. Reference price 450 very simple retro keyboard.
2.RK RC930 87RGB The world's first RGB electrostatic capacitor keyboard, soft lighting, reference price: 549
A large R & D RK OEM. (According to admurder's original words: "Not worse than realforce, several products are still behind the rf. In addition rf rfb static electricity is to imitate our products.")
In fact, this sentence gave me the feeling that the market really forced the topre corporation to change. Because of what the 20-year-old RF capacitive keyboard might look like today. The topre of the static capacitance-activated stone, on the way to deeper development, was left behind, and there was no rush response from the full-key to 1ms, and even the patented keyboard trigger key-range adjustment could be switched between 2mm and 3mm. Dmurder's sense of innovation forced the topre to adapt to the new market demand.
3. NiZ 84RGB 35g pressure (NiZ this series is very interesting, it is the main model of plum's high-end model, named after A big daughter Ning Zhi. Using his own description is: the best materials and the finest workmanship.) Although RGB keyboard, but the character of the original keycap is opaque. Because it can be compatible with the MX axis keycap, it is easy to replace.
4. Niz nano75 Bluetooth 3.0 Wireless Capacitive Keyboard I know that in addition to HHKB, the second is to do Bluetooth static capacitance. The former has not seen physical objects, about 2,000 more. If you count the Niz family of RGB conditions.
5. Niz108 Jane version looks much like the previous Noppoo108, the difference is that the wire is fixed, Niz108 in the details of a certain optimization. The overall comparison is retro and concise.
Finally, Fuller's electrostatic capacity. This controversy is relatively large. It has previously been debated whether this is a pseudo-capacity controversy and was once blackened out by the Topre Party. The principle is the diamond sleeve + grease. If Plum and Topre are summed up to the metal static capacitance, Fuller is the static capacitance of the air. In short, it uses its own set of things.
The deepest impression was still found on an encyclopedic web site specializing in medical search: electrostatic capacitive mechanical keyboards, full-fledged Fuller soft ADs, except that Fuller did not have any other brands of pictures, but instead the minority Fuller static capacitors. Here are the details of the trigger principle, and at the time I still doubted that I was not searching for the wrong entry. Is not found into: Fuller static capacitance, the results found that he did not search the wrong, gave himself a lesson!
1. Fuhlen's FL8000 capacitive video game keyboard was the first shot of Fuller's electrostatic capacitance and had a pair of big ears. At first glance, it was thought to be a top-level shotgun oil. This is Fuller. Reference price:199
2. Fuhlen SC950 OMG customized version of the static capacitive gaming keyboard White really, this is actually a good appearance, the design of the idea than the above do not know where to go. The disadvantage is that the structure has not changed, so it is not universal MX cross key cap Price: 399
1. If you want to feel the classic and pure capacitive touch, and don't care about the choice of personalized keycaps, but not bad money, consider the Topre system, that is, Leopold, RF. Coders with special needs can consider HHKB.
2. If you are a Fuller fan, interested in Fuller's patented Diamond patents, or have a deep love for Planet OMG, the Fuhlen SC950 OMG can be on your desktop.
3. If you want to experience the Topre structure, but also the pursuit of cost-effective, but also like to engage in several sets of keycaps in exchange for the best, but also a little RGB backlight, if there is Bluetooth is even better. So maybe you can find your food in the Plum NiZ series.
