Description
From small to tall and body types in between, the Freestyle2 allows for maximum flexibility catering to each individual’s unique needs. The Keyboard is connected together by a flexible pivot tether allowing an infinite range of splay.
Disconnecting the pivot tether allows up to 20cm separation of both left and right keying modules. Perfect for individual needs ranging from a narrow footprint to complete separation.
The Freestyle2 utilizes a quiet, low-force, tactile membrane key switch. The typical average maximum key force of a switch is 45 grams. This is at least 25% less than most traditional and many ergonomic keyboards such as the Microsoft 4000 with maximum key forces of over 60 grams.
Driverless hot keys for commonly used mouse actions. (Internet Page Forward and Back, Undo, Web Home, Cut, Copy and Paste). A vertical rib is located on the inside row of hot keys to provide tactile notification to the user.
Optional padded palm supports reduce wrist extension by keeping wrists neutral.
The Kinesis Freestyle2 is also available with a longer (50cm instead of 20cm) separation cord Kinesis Freestyle2 – 50cm Separator and in a wireless model Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue
