Q-Series Cloud-Connected Smart Keyboards

Das Keyboard has unveiled its new Q-Series Cloud-Connected Smart Keyboards taking the form of the 5Q and the X50Q equipped with the new Gamma Zulu switch, available exclusively from Das Keyboard. Both the 5Q and the X50Q with European layouts (DE, UK and NO) will soon be launching throughout Europe priced at €249 and €199 respectively. Features of the Das Keyboard 5Q is a cloud-enabled, open API, RGB mechanical keyboard include :

– Tracking the status of projects, pending deadlines and tasks over time
– Notifications when someone tweets or makes other social media posts
– Knowing when their favorite sports team has scored
– Receiving weather updates
– Tracking stock market activity
– Receiving virtually any other kind of information they want to track without ever opening a browser through the Q keyboard’s fully-customizable keys

“Since the Das Keyboard 5Q and X50Q are cloud-connected, users are able to do things they’ve never been able to do with a traditional input-only keyboard,” said Daniel Guermeur, founder and CEO of Das Keyboard. “Receiving streaming information right there at their fingertips means individuals are able to be more productive whenever they’re at their computers-whether a professional navigating the workday, or a gamer dominating their opponents.”

Q-Series Cloud-Connected Smart Keyboards

The Das Keyboard Q software includes:

– A dashboard for real-time key color visualization of information coming from the Internet into the 5Q or X50Q, made possible by IFTTT, Zapier or any other cloud applications with a public API
– Mode illumination, which allows the 5Q’s and X50Q’s LEDs to be individually controlled
– User-defined lighting profiles
– A desktop REST API that allows programmers to directly control the light colors with their own scripts

Features and specifications of the Das Keyboard 5Q and the Das Keyboard X50Q include :

– Extra-bright RGB backlighting electronics called Das Keyboard RGB+, along with custom surface-mount LEDs, optimized lens and ultra-clear light guide-making the 5Q keyboard many times brighter than any other RGB keyboard currently on the market
– A ‘Q button’ for activating the Das Keyboard Q software, and also acts as a volume knob
– Dedicated media keys located on the upper right corner
– An extra set of silver keycaps for WASD (X50Q only)
– Real-Time One (RTO) analog technology detects key presses in 0.4 milliseconds and reports it to the computer within 1 millisecond-up to 45 times faster than other keyboards (5Q only)
– A full-size keyboard with a removable, customizable and swappable top plate design (X50Q only)
