Abstract: A telephone keypad for one touch text messaging the QWERTY pattern of keys in a matrix of nine keys. Using the multi position biasing keys only one touch is needed for each character, so in use to input the letter “C” you touch one key one time, decreasing the time spend text messaging from cell phones or desk tops and dialing phone numbers advertised in letters. The keypad also has a shift key to get upper case included in the nine keys, and a 2nd key to double functionality of the keys.

Abstract: A keyboard operates by having a light beam reflected off a finger. When present, as indicated by the presence of the reflected light beam, the keyboard key location is sent to a PC or other device. The keyboard can be used in bright sunlight and total darkness. The keyboard has a one piece planar top surface with no opening or microbial (bacterial or viral) harbors.

Abstract: The invention is a light operated peripheral standalone input device to be used in and out of sunlight where input is made by a light beam to the peripheral or other input device where the light beam is pointed at a position from distances near and to over a mile away and the function of that position is input. The invention allows for keyboard input and directional control and cursor positioning to dedicated board level microprocessor driven control systems, personal computers, wheelchair operation, control panels for operating equipment and for those who cannot use their arms and hands for normal computer input like partial quadriplegics or other disabled persons, and persons that need a non-contact input device that is operated from a distance in hazardous areas or underwater with a light beam.

Abstract: A telephone keypad for one touch text messaging the QWERTY pattern of keys in a matrix of nine keys. Using the quad position biasing keys only one touch is needed for each character, so in use to input the letter “C” you touch one key one time, decreasing the time spend text messaging from cell phones or desk tops and dialing phone numbers advertised in letters. The keypad also has a shift key to get upper case included in the nine keys, and a 2nd key to double functionality of the keys.

Abstract: A key switch to sense and give feedback to a computer of depth, acceleration, velocity, and lateral or vibrato movement. The key switch is suitable for computer keyboards, musical keyboards, foot pedals and the like. Lateral or sideward key movements can be for mouse functions or multi code output from multi directional key movement from one key outputting a single key code or key sequences.
