Razer has launched a new gaming keypad in the form of the Razer Tartarus Pro, equipped with analogue optical switches designed to provide gamers with superior control and precision during gameplay. The analogue optical switches enable the keypad to measure how deep each key is pressed emulating control input similar to that of thumbsticks.
Together with 32 programmable keys including an eight-way directional thumbpad, which can be assigned for navigation or other commands unique to the user’s requirements. The eight quick-toggle profiles allow users to swap between settings or skill loadouts efficiently via a side button that changes profile instantaneously. Razer Explains a little more about the technology included in the latest gaming keypad:
“At the heart of the Razer Analog Optical Switches, an infrared light beam passes through switch stem, while a sensor measures the depth of the switch based on how much light passes through. As such, the switches can register scaling levels of input in the same keystroke. This lets advanced users take advantage of dual-function keys to bind two functions to each key – one that triggers on a partial keystroke, and another on a full keystroke. With dual-function keys, the Razer Tartarus Pro can help ease complex key presses and level up the gaming experience by adapting to the user’s playstyle and requirement.”
