Frosted interchangeable modules on the Flux Keyboard. Featuring the Triple Dial Module, which can control variables in supported applications or mix volume between apps.
@@fluxkeyboard Yeah, but that's not the same as having the layout of a full-size one and I'm not too keen on trying to relearn how to use it. Maybe some time after this comes out you guys could make a larger version? I know I'd definitely buy it.
@@Dubzy__ I'm not going to buy something I don't want to use, and I find using small keyboards annoying. Besides, a company is meant to meet customer demand, not the other way around. I love the concept here, but I'd rather save my money unless the time comes that they do decide to make a full-sized keyboard that uses this technology.
If I heard it right it uses magnet to hold them keys up huh? This would probably is the first keyboard that feels like typing on a 3d screen. I'm not sure how the screen detect each modules that's put on it too.
Hm. Well, given that the modules appear to be passive, I'm guessing that there's something optical identifying the specific module. For example, in the same way that phones can have under-display optical fingerprint sensors, you could have something that reads a QR code on the back of the module to say "this is a 3-dial module"... Based on that ID, the software can make assumptions about the dial locations, and there might be some other tags under each dial, which can be read to determine the rotation. Something as simple as a square that you can just get the orientation with a few lines of code (OpenCV?). Not saying this is the way it works, but it's the first thought that came to mind if they are truly passive.
@@parasharkchari No, they explained it already. It's all magnetic : Keys are suspended by magnets. When they move, their associated magnetic field changes, and these changes are sensed by hall-effect (magnetic) sensors. No words on the modules, but it's easy to guess the keyboard identifies them based on hall-effect as well.
They aren't solving a problem with this product though, normal keyboards work just fine. In fact this is probably worse than a conventional keyboard in most ways aside from customization options.
@@imgonnacream for many creators, power users, and engineers, A TON of hot keys are mapped to the numpad. Not having it makes your workflow in apps super slow by comparison
@@pinkrose5286 Nah. TKL typically has the 9 keys separated above the arrow keys for print screen, PGUP, Home, End, Etc. This one clumps them all together on the right hand side.
it would be cool if you could optionally have a detachable numpad - if you like this size but want to either upgrade in the future or just have a numpad when you buy it, get a bundle or something... would be a cool feature in the future if it's possible! this keyboard is sick :D
I eagerly await the ortholinear or columnar variant. Personally, I think the key layout should be entirely customizable; otherwise I don’t really see the point in a screen being behind it. The screen should show the functions under the keys, and change when layer keys are held. I get that there are “exciting” features about this, but people who are already truly down the practical side of the rabbit hole aren’t going to settle for something that only has the illusion of customizability. Best of luck on future products; I truly want to be purchasing one of your future products
Wondering how the image gets to the keybord : Is it DisplayLink, Alt Mode or just serial and then the keyboard processes everything ? Could we use this as an extra screen ?
The modularity of this keyboard is enticing but it's not enough to replace my regular keyboard. If there were different key frames that could replicate the functionality of other products like a midi controller or a 25 key piano keyboard or something like that I'd be sold.
i personally think that a material which somehow brings the light from under the modules up to the surface would look 10x better than this which currently looks like a keyboard version of a stream deck since that way it would have an illusion where it looks like the screen is on of the keys instead of under
yeah I was thinking about this too. There are materials which do that tho idek how to search for them. I'm concerned about the viewing angle of these keys. But maybe it's fine already? Gonna go hunt down some review videos to see various angles
I can't wait for this, it's awesome to see something so innovative coming out of Aus!! Will this be a continually available product? Or a one time drop? I'd love to buy a couple for my wife and I.
@@fluxkeyboard That sounds good to me. Ill be 100% preordering. Will you allow more than 1 keyboard per preorder? Or will wifey and I have to order separately?
Hi, yes we will be shipping to around 50 countries worldwide including Indonesia! Please stay tuned for updates as we will be launching pre-orders on our website this month ie. July fluxkeyboard.com/
Fantastic, how convenient it will be in printing is not known, but how cool it is. In fact, you have combined two of the best technologies, the adaptability of touch keyboards and the physical pressing of buttons. Works how? Hall sensors? And how much would such a miracle cost?
@@fluxkeyboard I mean, that's quite a hefty price for a keyboard but I also understand that alot goes into manufacturing something like this plus making a profit on top. I'll have to save up my pennies and wait for the release as I don't have that much to put down for a pre order 😔 still keep up the good work! I hope to get my hands on it one day soon!
If there was a full-size version of this I'd probably buy it on the spot. I'm already in love.
There is a USB C port on each side to attach an external numpad if you want.

who uses a numpad anymore?
wow this really is SO FUTURISTIC !!!!
I'M IN LOVE !!!!!!
samee!
Ngl, my engineering brain is going ham trying to figure out how the keyboard works

I'm not sure how the screen detect each modules that's put on it too.
if you're not sure how something works its probably magnets
@@MuhammadKharismawan the mechanism is called Hall effect

This has got to a whole another level

Thanks! You're awesome!
Thanks 🙏🏼🙏🏼
papan kekunci, pada masa hadapan terbaik👍
Yo im genuinely blown away
this looks so good! Please don't screw this up and destroy my last hope for kickstarter Projects! ;)
So Futuristic!
This one is superb!
This is so clean omg
Cant wait
Absolutely impressive
I'm usually not one to praise complicated solutions to simple problems, but I believe Flux can make a difference.
They aren't solving a problem with this product though, normal keyboards work just fine.

@@Corzappy but it looks cool and fun.thats the main point
@@Corzappy They DO solve a problem, that of memorizing kb short cuts. The keys show dynamic application-dependent symbols (not shown in the video).
@@falklumo Most rgb keyboards can do the same thing with LEDs
@@Corzappy rgb keyboards cannot show the shortcut. A color has no predefined meaning.
Wow ! Love it!
Definitely need this but as a full keyboard verions with typical gaming keyboard layout of ALL the keys. Yes also the arrrow keys.
The keyboard can change buttons with their software
OH MY GAHD I LOVE THIS!!!
It's so pretty
Make a full sized keyboard version with a number pad and I'll buy one.
Hi, there are USB ports on both sides so you can add a numpad. We are also planning to roll out a Flux numpad next.
@@fluxkeyboard 🎉🎉🎉 you have yourself a customer.
quick question, why does anyone even bother with a num pad? and who uses the print screen, end, page up, etc?
@@imgonnacream for many creators, power users, and engineers, A TON of hot keys are mapped to the numpad. Not having it makes your workflow in apps super slow by comparison
@@imgonnacream I can type numbers on a numpad at blazing speed. You learn to type on that just as you would the main keyboard
Really hoping to see a TKL version. Absolutely love this, but definitely need a TKL before I could buy it!
Is this not already ten keyless? I thought TKL meant it didn’t have a numpad, or does it mean something else?
@@pinkrose5286 Nah. TKL typically has the 9 keys separated above the arrow keys for print screen, PGUP, Home, End, Etc.
This one clumps them all together on the right hand side.
@@paulsullivan649 cool, thanks!
that looks sick af
Damn…it look so cool
I loved it
Can you make some modules for music producers and beatmakers? To integrate a midi protocol and add modules with knobs, pads, etc. That would be great.
Hi, the keyboard will have MIDI CC support for all dials/modules. There are also USB ports on both sides so you can add more knobs/pads
@@fluxkeyboard how much will it cost
@@youtu.behandleUSD 450
@@youtu.behandle as from the info on the website - 450$
What a cool and crazy keyboard🎉I will definitely pre-order this even from Japan❤
Even from Japan? Huh
altho this is rly dope and i want one, i already know this is gonna be priced a lot
The simplicity of this is overwhelming compared to the overengineered lebedev keyboard.
I want one so much - with a numeric keypad
Remember me when you are famous, also I would love to review this keyboard for 3 videos
it would be cool if you could optionally have a detachable numpad - if you like this size but want to either upgrade in the future or just have a numpad when you buy it, get a bundle or something... would be a cool feature in the future if it's possible! this keyboard is sick :D
It's already planned as stated in a different comment
Soo cool project! I’m already sold. I just need a “bit” more money 😢
Throws money at the screen. Ssshhesssh. Looks amazing!
This keyboard layout is my favorite, it is jus SAD laptop manufacturer didn't think the same😢
Woahhhh amazing keyboard….
Wow!
絶対買う！
Will you make more keyboards in the future? Ortholinear or smaller/larger footprint?
Hi Marissa, ortholinear is on the cards for future production. Cheers
@@fluxkeyboard any info on this? or is it a complete scam?
I want one now!
Clean
Holy hell it looks amazing, if this worked with, say, Fl studio or DAWs in general, then this is an instant cop for me.
Their ad specifically shows an ableton shortcut setting so Id imagine FL is gonna have one too
Imagine not just having dedicated controllers
I need one of these.
Cool
I want these silent-ass keyboards so badly like goddamn
I want this now...

I like my kidneys but I like this keyboard.
*Sells one* *buys one*
Looks great 🔥 I'd have to try one out, I'm interested how the key feedback is.
I hope those switches feel good
if you can have fully customizable keys (and i mean FULLY, including moving fn keys) you got a real winner here for some people
Looks very unusual
Awesome. Not for me but still awesome
Wondering how the image gets to the keybord : Is it DisplayLink, Alt Mode or just serial and then the keyboard processes everything ? Could we use this as an extra screen ?
I dont like fullsize keyboards anymore so this works
If yall had this as a tkl layout more people would buy it as would I
Im so done with nosy mechanical keyboards. I switched to much more minimalistic setups. Now this is different and i want one.
You should send some to some reviewers to get popularity
Why so good I wish I could afford it someday😢.
Chike it up!!
The modularity of this keyboard is enticing but it's not enough to replace my regular keyboard.

Yessssss a literal piano board key frame would be fire. Also midi controllers and DJ deck controllers and other such similarness
cool
So cool! Just wondering, but where can I download and/or make themes?
Please add indented and shaped keys like the ThinkPads also add haptic feedback
That typing sound though 🥴
I want to touch one! I need to type on it to really know if I can use it. If the keys feel good, I'm all-in.

They're pretty interesting but i really want to try the wooting 60HE
I guess it's simple seems to be HD panel underneath and transparent keys on top .

I need this keyboard, but I need full size version! ❤
I want one already
Would love to see the layout so i can try make a custom keycap for the wonderful piece of technology
I can't wait for this, it's awesome to see something so innovative coming out of Aus!! Will this be a continually available product? Or a one time drop? I'd love to buy a couple for my wife and I.
Hopefully continuous but will probably be backordered for a while, so pre-order when we launch to be first in line
@@fluxkeyboard That sounds good to me. Ill be 100% preordering. Will you allow more than 1 keyboard per preorder? Or will wifey and I have to order separately?
Really cool! I want one but can't justify the price point. Are you guys planning to reduce cost of production or release more economic options?
make one with e-ink display - I'm already so overstimulated! And these things better not get ads!!
I hope it come out in Indonesia
Cuz I need it badly

Price will be USD450. You can read about how the keyboard works on our website fluxkeyboard.com/
What is the software like to change the bg, key fonts etc?
probably shit, as it usually is...
Its a really great keyboard but the price is a lil to high for me 😢
Looks amazing but the price is absolutely crazy high
@fluxkeyboard Expected launch date? 😊❤
Will there be an option for a magnetic wrist rest?
I want flux keyboard so bad 😢
I wonder if there will be a version with elevated keycaps like a standard board? Not really a fan of flat caps
imagine an ortho-linear version of the keeb
i thought that was water for a second
will there be ortholinear or staggered row frames released?
Hi, we are hoping to release an ortholinear model in the future
Can you also switch the keyboard layout? Like moving the Fn on the left?
Realistically how good would this be for gaming. With all the key smashing I do, I feel like I’d have to replace the face often
Probably not good since its not mechanical or hall effect
Realistically this is probably one of the worst keyboards you could get for gaming
@@crislopez it us hall effect
how did the keyboard know you changed the module? does the module have nfc or something?
From what i know this is a glass-on-touch-screen keyboard
Could be nearly perfect. I would like a ortholinear keycap top though.
Hi, we are hoping to release an ortholinear model in the future
Waiting for a cellphone to pick this tech up
Love the idea but think it would of been better if it crystal clear switches mechanical key caps
This is really cool but what I'd it falls down?
It's beautiful and I want one, but.. I bet I won't be able to afford one 😅
hi, you can pre-order for USD379 on Kickstarter bit.ly/getfluxkeyboard. We have had mixed feedback on whether this is affordable or expensive

Why are the letters of the left half so off center from thier buttons?
Will you be making a clicky version in the future as well? If that's even possible?
