Keyboard USB Wireless Mini 2.4G Multi-functional with Touchpad

This Mini USB Wireless Keyboard for Raspberry Pi and other HTPC setups is Multi-functional, offering the basic QWERTY keyboard design, as well as a host of other Pi-specific function buttons. This is what warrants the 2.4GHz processor, as it’s equipped with predefined functions to complement any Raspberry Pi or HTPC project.

The touchpad on this keyboard multi-functional and can zoom, scroll, click, grab and even rotate depending on how fingers are pressed upon it, which ensures you have full control despite not having an actual mouse to manoeuvre. The keyboard itself is powered by 2 AAA Batteries, and has an operational voltage of 3.3V. It is capable of interfacing with USB 1.1, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, as well as wirelessly via 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.

The actual keys on the keyboard have a Key Force of 100GF and a Key Travel of 2mm, which is far shallower than typical keyboards but still ensures that you can feel each press of each key. Additionally, it includes anti-ghosting to reduce double-presses of buttons and has 12 custom-programmable multi-media keys spread over the board in a logical and convenient fashion.

Typical Applications for the USB Wireless Mini 2.4G Multi-Function Keyboard:

The Keyboard USB Wireless Mini 2.4G Multi-functional with Touchpad was originally designed to be used in conjunction with Raspberry Pi systems, but can be utilized for almost any HTPC setup. It is compatible with both modern and old USB interfaces and has an operational distance almost two times the length of a typical lounge. These features make the keyboard ideal for applications like:

• Building a media-system for the lounge that can connect to a hard drive or the internet to play movies, music and other media – or for you to play nostalgic NES ROMs on during your free time.
• Designing an exhibition interface for a large project that you’re putting on show – for visitors and viewers to interact with your project in a way that’s already natural to them.
• Making a car-computer with complete visual display, keyboard and track-pad control – built directly into the dash, or on a swing arm for passengers to man the media-station while you drive.

While it is possible for you to simply connect up a standard USB Keyboard and mouse to your Raspberry Pi or HTPC system, this Multi-functional Mini USB Wireless Keyboard offers so much more functionality in a compact and neat form factor. So consider acquiring one of these Raspberry Pi Accessories to complement your already-awesome system and ensure your project is not weighed down by clunky, old, redundant accessories.
