Effortless communication from a small desktop at home.
Post-pandemic, working from home is the new norm. WFH keyboard maximizes desk space by cleaning up excess products, such as bulky mics and speakers. Collapses speaker and mic functions into its screenpad.
No more accidental mutes.
Mute and connectivity issues are no stranger to video calls. WFH uses clear, visually salient cues to indicate different modes of use. Users no longer need to question their input/output method, or switch to the video call screen to check if they are muted.
Salient visual cues.
When speaker and mic is on: speaker is popped up, and the WFH led is on, indicating mic status. When the speaker is on while the mic is muted: the speaker is popped up, but the WFH led is off. When the keyboard is in use, but an alternative audio input/output method is active, such as a headset or earbuds: the speaker and mic is retracted back under the screenpad.
Unique layouts.
The detachable screenbar can be rearranged to preferred workflows, such as sketching or taking analog notes during meetings. Snaps back together with internal magnets when done.
