Roopenian came up with the final design, a wood grained keyboard with natural textures and ridges that matched patterns of use.

ridges would be very uncomfortable to type on.

So apparently... he website doesn't render correctly in Chrome. But anyway...

I guess the plan is to make the severity of the ridges inversely proportional to the usage of the key, because that somehow helps the user system input relationship.

If so, I can't help but notice that there are ridges on the WSAD keys... guess the keyboard was not made for me.

Dude just glued wood to an apple keyboard. Can you imagine how quickly that would get old? Never mind if you get a splinter...

I would be interested, very tired of this plastic world we are in.

Definitely a prototype. It appears all he did was glue his wooden keys on top of the existing keys.

I'm usually not a fan of the simple apple-like keyboards, but this is relevant to my interests. Wood grain is always appealing.

Ultimate Tactile Sanctification.... right....

Slapping textured keycaps on an Apple keyboard in no way makes this a great tactile keyboard.
Make a version based on Cherry Blue switches and I might be willing to take a look.

 

[maqsabre]

some other material may give a better tactical feedback than wood,
perhaps rubber?
just my opinion

I've been working on a Sponge Bob Microsoft Sidewinder ergonomic prototype for some time. Having problems printing the key characters on the sponges. This guy beat me to the punch.
