There will inevitably be mechanical keyboards that have more than simply attractive color-changing RGB LED lights as mechanical keyboards grow in popularity and acceptance over time.
One of these is the Finalmouse Centerpiece keyboard, which has its own display and translucent glass keycaps that show animated images. The appearance of this mechanical keyboard, which was unveiled on YouTube last Saturday, is both gorgeous and distracting.
Finalmouse is well known for their PC mice with detailed and distinctive designs, but in 2023 they plan to go one step further and release their first keyboard. Interactive keyboard skins featuring, among other things, swimming koi fish, cherry blossoms, galaxies, grazing lions, cracking ice, and even the watchful Eye of Sauron have been made using the 3D computer graphics game engine Unreal Engine 5.
A high-resolution display is situated at the base of the keyboard switches, and here is where the scenes from the skins are projected. The light display is additionally powered by its own CPU and GPU, which eases the burden on the linked system’s processing resources.
The Freethinker Portal, a marketplace for skins that Finalmouse is developing, will allow designers to submit their skins and decide whether or not to charge for them. On the board, there will be three skin spots, each with a unique selection button on the side, perhaps for quick backdrop changes. The glass used in the keyboard, Laminated DisplayCircuit Glass Stack (LDGS), is mounted on an aluminum chassis and affords reasonable protection. Finalmouse asserts that the keyboard’s durability is unaffected by the materials used.

The keyboard’s characteristic typing sound has also been likened to delicate marble rains. Gateron’s linear Black Ink switches, which according to Finalmouse have 4mm of travel and actuate with 60 grams of force, are among the mechanical switch specifications for the keyboard. The precise dimensions, brightness, resolution, and refresh rate of the mechanical keyboard have not yet been made public by Finalmouse. However, it is scheduled to be released in early 2023 and costs $349 USD.
