Inflated keycaps

You can air-type on these inflated keycaps by Running Guy Studio.

Out of 150,000 readers, only 54 make this blog possible. Will you be one of them?

People at London-based Running Guy design studio seem to be obsessed with everything inflated or cushioned.

They made PlayStation AirShock, an inflated PS controller, cushioned suitcase and phone case, etc., and now they published some renders introducing Air Type, a keyboard with air bubbles to type on.

I wonder if this is a mere meme or they have intention to actually produce something similar.

While probably the worse keycap profile ever made, somebody should really consider building this whether to create a bubble wrap experience or the perfect "cloud of boobs" feeling associated with linear switches.
