==COMPUTER WITH KEYBOARD - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240370061 titled 'COMPUTER WITH KEYBOARD

The abstract describes a device with a display portion housed within a display housing, a base portion pivotally coupled to the display portion, and a sensing system below an array of raised key regions on the top case.

* The device includes a display portion with a display housing and a display.
* It also has a base portion that is pivotally coupled to the display portion.
* The base portion consists of a bottom case and a top case with an array of raised key regions.
* A sensing system is located below the top case to detect input applied to the raised key regions.

Potential Applications:
- This technology could be used in laptops, tablets, or other electronic devices with keyboards.
- It could also be applied in gaming devices or specialized input devices.

Problems Solved:
- Provides a more compact and integrated design for devices with keyboards.
- Enhances user experience by improving input detection and responsiveness.

Benefits:
- Streamlines the design of devices with keyboards.
- Increases the accuracy and efficiency of input detection.

Commercial Applications:
Title: Innovative Keyboard Design for Enhanced User Experience
This technology could be utilized in the development of next-generation laptops, tablets, and gaming devices, potentially appealing to consumers looking for improved input capabilities.

Questions about the technology:
1. How does the sensing system detect input on the raised key regions?
The sensing system below the top case is configured to detect an input applied to a raised key region of the array of raised key regions.
2. What are the potential advantages of having a base portion pivotally coupled to the display portion?
The pivotal coupling allows for flexibility in the device's form factor and potentially enhances user ergonomics.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a device may include a display portion that includes a display housing and a display at least partially within the display housing. the device may also include a base portion pivotally coupled to the display portion and including a bottom case, a top case coupled to the bottom case and defining an array of raised key regions, and a sensing system below the top case and configured to detect an input applied to a raised key region of the array of raised key regions.
