iKey’s AK-39 wearable keyboard

Posted in Keyboards by Conner Flynn on July 14th, 2009

iKey's AK-39 wearable keyboardiKey is known for their rugged keyboards, but they’ve outdone themselves with the new AK-39 wearable keyboard. It’s made primarily for military use and conforms to full MIL-461 standards. With this keyboard on your wrist you’ll be good to go in environments with harsh electromagnetic interference and it’s also designed to be used with a glove in either left or right-hand configurations.

The keyboard is a basic 39-key layout, with an integrated pointing device that uses Force Sensing Resistor (or FSR) technology, with adjustable green backlighting that is compatible with night vision. We have no info on pricing, but you probably can’t afford it anyway.

I can see it now. Soldiers texting each other will engaging the enemy.

I totally fragged that guy.
