Developing a new product that began by abandoning previous concepts

The 'HHKB Studio' developed under the leadership of the US team, is heavier and larger compared to the traditional HHKB, seemingly not designed for portability. By starting with the concept of abandoning previous notions, the new product was developed without incorporating a roof function and with a depth of 80mm, resulting in a compact and user-friendly design that pairs perfectly with the HHKB Studio. Additionally, 6mm thick striped ebony plates are embedded on both sides to the corners, adding robustness and a sense of luxury. Furthermore, the length remains the same at 294mm, ensuring versatility for use with traditional HHKB models.

The concept of the “Guide”

The 'Gesture Pad' a concept central to HHKB Studio's pinnacle functionality, is a touch-sensitive sensor integrated to facilitate intuitive analog adjustments like swift screen transitions and volume control. Designed to maximize this feature, the "Gesture Pad Guide" enables dramatic improvement in operation simply by tracing the Gesture Pad with your thumb, placed conveniently in front of the HHKB Studio. The "Gesture Pad Guide" currently pending patent, introduces an entirely new concept that allows users to find their preferred position by adjusting its orientation and flipping it. Its smooth touch, crafted from premium wood, undoubtedly enhances your work efficiency.
