The Touchpad Fusion Keyboard that the Keyboard itself is the Touchpad

Story

 

Mokibo is a full-size keyboard in which the keyboard surface also functions as a trackpad. Your fingers don’t have to leave the keyboard to move the mouse cursor.

 

 

In previous versions of Mokibo 2019, the entire keyboard was a trackpad. With this design, you have to remove the left hand from the keyboard to use the trackpad. With the new Mokibo Folio, only the right side is used as the trackpad. Therefore, you can leave your left hand on the keyboard while using the trackpad with your right hand.

 

 

 

A precision touch sensor is located under the right half of the keyboard. Our technology automatically distinguishes between keyboard mode and mouse mode so that the mouse does not move while using the keyboard.

 

 

 

Mokibo uses a pantograph keyboard, which is the most widely used type of keyboard in laptop computers, so it will have a familiar feel–providing comfort and enabling fast typing. The key travel distance is 1.3 to 1.5mm which is the most desirable distance for laptop computers.

 

 

 

 

*Mokibo folio Universal is not a tablet PC keyboard case. It is just a portable keyboard with folio protector. Mokibo folio for iPad Pro 11″ and 12.9″ are iPad Pro keyboard case which fit to iPad Pro device. 

 

 

We successfully crowdfunded our first version of the portable dual function Mokibo keyboard with the integrated trackpad surface in the US, Korea, and Japan and we produced in 2019. Building on the 2019 version, the 2020 Mokibo Folio will feature greatly improved keyboard feel and touch sensitivity.

  • Keyboard + Trackpad

 

Mokibo Folio feels like a standard laptop keyboard because that’s what it is. The trackpad is conveniently hidden underneath the right half of the keyboard saving space and minimizing hand movements. Slide your fingers over the keys and see the mouse cursor magically move. The mouse pointer won’t move when you’re typing thanks to the automatic mode recognition algorithm. 

 

 

  • Scroll

 

You can scroll using two fingers just as you would a standard trackpad. Smoothness is comparable to that of trackpads/mice from leading brands.

The hidden Mokibo Folio trackpad is almost three times larger than some premium trackpads, so you don’t have to rub the trackpad multiple times to move the pointer to where you want it.

Risks and challenges

Previously, we ran a successful crowdfunding campaign with our first model of Mokibo and delivered to all backers. You can pledge with confidence based on our track record. We will also deliver a product that has been perfected though addressing all the feedbacks we got from the first model we mass produced. And we are now launching a Mokibo Folio for iPad users with upgraded features and quality. However, please note that our product is only at the pilot production stage, so some minor design and functional modifications may be applied. It will work properly with iPadOS 13 or later and most Windows, Android, macOS, and iOS devices. However, some devices that are not an iPad Pro may be unstable with some fuctions or the Bluetooth connectivity. It is important to understand that unexpected things may happen along the way, which are very hard to predict now. For example, delays in shipping can occur due to factors like viruses, travel restrictions, even trade wars, or other manufacturing challenges. Like many, we have been contending with the uncertainties of COVID-19. We’ve decided to manufacture in South Korea where we are based to ensure quality and timely delivery. If any delays were to occur due to any circumstances, we will diligently update all our backers with full transparency. We will do our utmost to eliminate any of doubts you may have along the way. Customer service and communication are of great importance to us and we will make sure to keep you updated throughout the campaign and production.
