CES 2019: Customize every key with Nemeio e-paper keyboard

Keyboards are only customizable to a certain degree. But for the many years since the input method has been around, its format hasn’t really changed. There is, as Slash Gear points out, “still no one keyboard to fit all.” But perhaps, we’ve found a solution for that with the Nemeio e-paper keyboard. The French company has developed a keyboard that doesn’t just let you change keyboard mappings but lets you change what’s displayed from letters to numbers to even icons. By using e-paper technology, this solves one of the biggest issues with customizable keyboards. The keys aren’t engraved or etched, so these can be everything you want it to be. Plus e-paper technology is seen as an energy-efficient way to achieve this.

Nemeio’s keyboard connects to PCs or Macs via Bluetooth, highlighting the portability of this accessory. As expected, it requires a special program to map out the keys. But it’s as simple as dragging and dropping the keys you want where you want them. Unfortunately, there is no word yet on when or how much this unnamed product is going to be. But we’re hoping to hear from the company soon.
