Wooting keyboards have come to’revolutionise’ the gaming keypad market with their analog switch system, which allows you to individually identify the keystroke level instead of traditional mechanical systems that only turn on or off the switches.
Wooting keyboards use analog keys instead of mechanical keys
In games, this can allow users to differentiate between a walking speed and a running speed with WASD or control vehicles more easily. This is similar to what we have been able to do with gamepads and their analog sticks for many years now.
Wooting One’s first product was Wooting One, offering a plethora of new options for PC players while offering everything else that mechanical keyboard users would expect. Now the company has unveiled its Wooting Two, offering a numpad and a series of additional changes.
The Wooting Two will offer the same features as the One, providing four additional programmable keys, a numeric keypad and a lower height to reduce the typing sound. The keyboard will use the same Flaretech key switches with the Linear55 “Red”, Clicky55 “Blue” and Linear85 “Black” varieties and upgrade the micro-USB cable to a USB Type-C.
The Wooting Two will be available for the first time on Kickstarter on May 31st, and the company plans to continue supporting the first One model in the future with software updates. More information about Wooting Two and its Kickstarter campaign will be available in the coming weeks.
