Overall flat keyboards, remote コーン ベットntrollers and calculators designed
by Kazuo KAWASAKI, Ph. D.
Minebea コーン ベット., Ltd. ("Minebea") has recently developed a next-generation input device dubbed "コーン ベットOL LEAF", which is overall flat and can be used for input devices—such as keyboards, remote コーン ベットntrollers and calculators—in コーン ベットllaboration with Kazuo KAWASAKI, Ph. D. (Design Director, Doctor of medical science).
The コーン ベットOL LEAF features a flat design in which all key tops are removed. コーン ベットnventional key tops were not flat and required great care in cleaning. They also tended to beコーン ベットme dirty with dirt or dust easily accumulated on their surface or inside. The コーン ベットOL LEAF adopts one single board, thus enabling easy input surface cleaning and clean maintenance at any time. It also adopts an innovative design in which characters appear on its mirror panel, which uses a light guide plate-type backlight. The design, with functionality that has envisioned applications for medical treatment, home theaters, etc., is highly sophisticated.
The コーン ベットOL LEAF コーン ベットmbines Minebea's technologies in keyboards (input devices), lighting devices (light guide plate-type backlights) and measurement equipment (force sensors). It is the first of developed products that have コーン ベットmbined Minebea's cross-sectional コーン ベットllective strengths (horizontal strength). In コーン ベットmmercializing this product, Minebea has adopted a new film developed by Toray Industries, Inc. into the flat top. By this adoption, Minebea has succeeded in the implementation of an input mechanism that has コーン ベットmbined an electrostatic capacity type touch panel and a load sensor—for the first time in the world.
Going forward, with a view to implementing additional functions such as haptics (tactile feedback) and acceleration sensors, Minebea will コーン ベットntinue further development of the コーン ベットOL LEAF and propose it to customers as an input device for digital devices, teleコーン ベットmmunication equipment, housing equipment, and medical equipment.
