Original Abstract Submitted

A multifunctional upgradeable and expandable modular keyboard comprising a keyboard layout structure module having a plurality of keys and operatively coupled to a docking module via a docking module data and power connector and a releasable docking module fastener track and the keyboard layout structure module operatively coupled to a multifunctional modular peripheral input device via a peripheral input device fastener track and a peripheral input device data and power connector where the docking module houses a keyboard controller for communication of keystroke actuation to an information handling system and a keyboard battery. Plural sides of the releasable docking module fastener track slidingly couple the docking module and the keyboard layout structure module. Plural sides of the peripheral input device fastener track slidingly couple the multifunctional modular peripheral input device and the keyboard layout structure module. The docking module may further receive an interchangeable functional expansion module.
