Pointer control and key-cluster modules for _both_ sides

Back at UHK after several years away - can’t be more impressed with still here and still innovating!

When I first contemplated UHK (with very limited budget) I was keenly aware that there is one, and only one, left side module and all the pointer control modules are right side.

I’m sure it has come up before (I vaguely remember correspondence about it back before the original UHK’s were shipping) andI’ve tried searching forums and web for reason other than increase in production costs to make “duplicates” of all modules or only the right side can handle the data through-put of the input devices and extending same feature to left side cost prohibitive.

Anyone confirm/deny why the pointer control are only on the right and if there is any chance for left hand pointer control modules in the future?

Still super impressed with UHK - this is the future we were promised!

Hi there, and thanks for the kind words!

No left-side pointer modules exist because of the lack of strong demand. Future UHKs will have some left-hand pointer control capabilities, but I can’t elaborate.

How about a keycluster for the right side?

I don’t want to elaborate on the details, but I think future UHKs will blow your socks off.

Dang it Laszlo, now you’ve got my brain going in all kinds of weird directions! :thinking:

Integrated, high-powered foot warmer. I’d buy that.

An enormous foot-controlled trackball?

Or one of these ridiculous things:


On a more serious note, I’d actually kinda like to try this thing (no brain surgery required):

Columnar layout with machine vision and motorized shifting columns. Senses when you reach and moves the columns individually up or down to meet your fingers half-way. Keep your hands on the home row and reach the fn keys with ease!

This was actually the first thing that came to mind.

You do realize you could just make the keys smaller? :wink:

“Fat fingering” keys doesn’t usually mean just having bad aim. Shifting the columns would let the keys stay big enough for most hands… but I concede that making the keys smaller would be easier.

uhk60 WITH choc switches for thumb keys like the 80…
