The Super Mini Wireless Trackball Keyboard from Solidtek features keycaps with a horizontal spacing of just 15 mm, approximately 78% of the normal. The keycaps are also shallower in height, resulting in the rows being spaced just 14 mm apart, approximately 73% of normal. This reduced spacing makes the keyboard not only narrower but also shallower (front to back). The fully-functioning membrane keys have a shorter-than-average travel and include a scissors mechanism that enhances the smoothness and stability of keyswitches. Despite including the smallest "physically functioning" keyboard available, it also includes both an embedded numeric keypad to offer full 101 key functionality. The Shift, Enter, Space Bar, Caps Lock, Tab, and all bottom and top row keys are all significantly smaller than on a standard keyboard.

The reduced key spacing and small size of the key caps make the Super Mini Wireless Trackball Keyboard primarily suitable for everyday two-handed use by children or those with smaller-than-average hands. For one-handed typing by those with average to smaller hands the compact width can reduce the movement necessary to access all of the keys and the convenience of an integrated mousing device will provide fully computer access in a compact 11.5" width. However those with larger finger tips will still have difficulty activating just a single key and would be better served by a compact keyboard with full-size keycaps and standard key spacing.

Although not ideal for daily use by many individuals the portability of this keyboard does make it suitable for short term use with portable devices. It can be powered the included USB cable, alkaline batteries, or rechargeable batteries.

NOTE: If the mini-USB cable is being used to power the keyboard, DO NOT USE the alkaline batteries at the same time, as the keyboard will ATTEMPT TO CHARGE THE BATTERIES. Use rechargeable batteries instead or uninstall the alkaline batteries during corded use.

The Industrial 102 key Keyboard with Cursorpoint from Solidtek is a full-sized, rigid, silicone-sealed keyboard with a cursorpoint mousing device integrated just below the spacebar. This ensures reliable data input and cursor control in environments where traditional keyboards and mice will fail. The sealed silicone cover provides protection from dust and a wide range of liquids and can be easily cleaned with soap or many other non-petroleum based cleaning agents.

The design of the keyswitch does require a clean central pressure or there can be a tendency for the keycap to "rock" and fail to activate the switch. This keyboard is designed primarily for locations where exposure to dust or liquids will drastically shorten the lifespan of traditional keyboards and where limited amounts of data are being entered. The easily cleanable surface also makes it suitable when germ control is a consideration. Since operators in these environments may be wearing gloves the keycaps provide a smaller contact surface with a significant spacing of 5 mm between keys, reducing the potential for accidental activation of adjacent keys.

The Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments which would render traditional input devices unusable. Fully enclosed in silicone, it meets IP68 protection standards for dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. With a cursorpoint mousing device incorporated into the keyboard, and key movement that provides distinct tactile feedback, the Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint is a complete data entry and control device in one.

The narrow 9" footprint of this keyboard means that it can be used wherever space is at a premium. However, the resulting reduction in key pitch spacing (14.6 mm, or 75% of standard) could make touch typing difficult. With the possible exception of those with extremely small hands, most will find it difficult to position their fingers over adjacent keys in the usual way. Adopting a two-fingered typing style can reduce the potential of overshooting the targeted keys. This keyboard is consequently more suitable for quick spurts of limited data entry than for extensive typing.

The incorporated cursorpoint mousing device is located directly below the spacebar and offers full fingertip cursor control. Large left and right click buttons flank it on both sides.

Note: The entire keypad has a raised outer lip running around it which in some environments could allow liquid to pool.

The Compact Keyboard with Trackball from Solidtek is an 89 key mini-keyboard with a small (0.8 cm diameter) built-in optical trackball and buttons. All alpha-numeric keys are standard size; the rest are smaller than normal, including the Enter, Shift, and Space keys. There is also an embedded numeric keypad (legended in blue) instead of a discrete numeric keypad.

The Cleankeys CK4 Wireless Capacitive Desktop Glass Keyboard from GETT (formerly Indukeys) is a wipeable, waterproof wireless keyboard designed for environments in which hygienic conditions are a necessity, such as medical and dental operatories. The surface of this touch-sensitive (i.e. zero force) keyboard is a completely flat Gorilla Glass 3 that is easily cleaned using hospital-grade disinfectants. Keystrokes are activated by lightly touching the legended key areas on the surface as there are no moving mechanical parts in the keyboard. The keys have adjustable sensitivity and volume to provide some confirmation of input in the absence of tactile or haptic feedback. A touchpad area for mouse input (including two dedicated areas for left and right click) occupy the traditional location of the cursor keys. The directional cursor keys are still available and have been relocated below the Enter and Right Shift key area.

The ISO compliant standard 103 key layout makes the transition to a different keying action less daunting. The one-touch "Key Lock" feature locks out all key input to avoid accidental data entry, and is especially valuable when cleaning is required. This function is activated and de-activated by a simple 2-second touch on the "Key Lock" indicator.

For applications where wireless is not a necessity these same features are available in a Wired model.Note: The Wired model of the CK4 does NOT include the Pause/Break, Scroll Lock, or Print Screen Keys. The newer CK5 Wired model includes Print Screen and Pause as alternate Functions.

The special-purpose Washable Keyboard with 2-in-1 10-key Touchpad from Solidtek Solidtek features a responsive touchpad mousing surface which converts to a fully functioning 10-key numeric keypad with a simple keystroke. This means that all standard keyboard functions are packed into a 15" wide keyboard, with no sacrifice in key size or spacing. This makes this keyboard ideal for the space constraints of dental operatories, medical offices, or any area where space is restricted. The softly rounded contours of the IP68 rated fully-sealed silicone surface lend themselves to complete disinfection as the keyboard is both water and dust-proof, features which also make it suitable for locations where moisture and dust will quickly render standard keyboards inoperable.

The keyswitches feel soft but still offer reasonably tactile response, providing notification when a key has been activated. Unlike some similar keyboards, the keys have minimal rock and the vertical movement is clean. By incorporating the navigation cluster into the compact layout and integrating the multi-function touch surface into the space traditionally occupied by a dedicated numeric keypad, the extended reach on the right is reduced to a minimum. The problem of mice failing to function due to moisture and dust on sensor surfaces is eliminated since the touchpad surface is unaffected by these environmental issues. High contrast white-on-black legends are easily readable. A backlit version of this keyboard is also available for environments with low levels of lighting.

A final and unusual feature—a convenient On/Off switch—fully disables input from both the keyboard and the incorporated dual-purpose touchpad mousing surface/numeric keypad. This ensures that accidental data entry or cursor movement cannot occur, making this keyboard well-suited to medical or manufacturing environments where data entry needs to be precisely controlled. This also can also be employed when disinfecting the keyboard while it is still plugged into the computer, preventing input during the cleaning process.
