The designers and engineers at MIIIW have unveiled and launched a new polyclear keyboard in the form of the BlackIO 83. Launched via Kickstarter this month the keyboard sports a “postmodernism design aesthetic” and features, hot, swappable switches and can be used with both windows and Mac operating systems. The wireless keyboard is equipped with a 4,000 mAh battery but can also be used via its integrated Bluetooth connection or using the supplied cable.
Backer early bird pledges are now available for the cutting-edge project from roughly $139 or £118 (depending on current exchange rates), offering a considerable discount of approximately 29% off the final retail price, while the Kickstarter crowd funding is under way.
“Inspired by a postmodernism design aesthetic, BlackIO 83 has see-through keycaps, is QMK & VIA customizable and features an 83 keys design. It’s a stunning keyboard that works like a dream and cleverly combines function & aesthetics.”
