The average of a person accustomed to typing with a QWERTY keyboard is about 120 wpm, instead the keyboard CharaChorder promises speeds of over 300 ppm, is that possible? This atypical keyboard was unveiled two years ago at CES, and now has a final version. Riley Keen, CEO of CharaChorder, is taking TikTok and typing competitions by storm, where his device has just been banned. Its good ?

Write as fast as you think with CharaChorder
The concept of such a special keyboard is very simple and may be familiar to us when we use a stenographer. Its system, unlike the conventional mechanical keyboard which has a key for almost every letter we press for the purpose of using all of our fingers at the same time, moving them through its four-way joysticks to write in unison, significantly speeding up and speeding up our writing.
As in shorthand, CharaChorder uses software that may have a similarity to predictive keyboard that we currently have on our cell phones. Writing chords, with this software, gives us the possibility to write several letters at the same time and make the software generate the full word.
As can be seen in the image, each position of one of these eighteen joysticks is assigned a letter and even an action. When we tap on these positions, the words are generated automatically.
Banned from Monkeytype… For fast!
For those new to this competitive typing platform; This is where users, through self-generated texts, must write a series of linked words and thus compete in a duel to obtain the maximum number of words per minute. This platform has banned the use of CharaChorder to exceed the 500 words per minute
Without entering into the controversy of whether the use of this keyboard would be legal or not in the competitive field. The truth that CharaChorder with its 18 gamepads and with a lot (a lot) of practice, the speed of scandal can be achieved when it comes to writing.
If you are interested in purchasing this keyboard, you can do so through its official website for a cost of $ 399, although it is currently out of stock and has a fairly long waiting list. But if you’re one of those people who like to experiment and develop new ways, through your own store they sell development PCBs for just $ 99.
