Unfortunately, I'm not of an age where a rotary mechanism inspires wistful nostalgia; for me, looking at an old rotary phone is a bit like looking at a fascinating evolutionary dead-end, a path not taken by tech. Well, Google Japan's latest bit of whimsical concept kit seeks to reinvigorate the rotary wheel.
There you go, you've 'typed' a single alphanumeric character—now on to the next one. It's a decidedly drawn-out process that would stop my hot takes long before they threaten to boil over, that's for sure.
Oh, did I mention this concept keyboard comes with a stand that looks like an old-timey cradle for a landline phone? You can switch off your camera in video calls when you rest your mouse atop this cradle. That's not quite as dramatic as slamming the receiver down to end the call, but I can appreciate how hardware these days doesn't fare as well against such heated handling.
Google Japan is known for their weird and wonderful concepts. These began with , which was likely intended as an April Fool's homage that got delayed into October by the Coronavirus pandemic. Since then, our Hope reported on its , and last year Andy . Intended as a bit of playful fun rather than a product launch, neither of these impractical keyboards, nor the Gboard Dial Version, is available for purchase.
However, you may attempt to build your own. Apparently not one to stifle creativity, Google Japan has uploaded for making your own rotary keyboard, offering everything from , to 3D printing data and firmware downloads.
While such a project is unlikely to ever be a contender for one of the , I am still curious what this bit of kit would be like to game on. I've little doubt I'll be going around and around on that question until at least October next year when Google Japan unveils its next concept.
