Google Japan introduced yet another bizarre device from its latest release, and it is the company's new Gboard Stick which is 65 inches long and has multiple purposes apart from being an accessory for your computer. Japan may be full of unconventional technology, but this one takes it to new lengths as it may transform into a hiking pole and a bug catcher for one's needs.
Google Japan's Gboard Stick
There is a new device from Google Japan that will surely raise an eyebrow for people that discovers it, but as much as it raises a question on one's mind, it also enlightens people with ingenuity for the tech. It is with the latest Gboard Stick from the company, a 65-inch device that lays out the keys in a single line format, from the letters to numbers, down to its function buttons like spacebar and others.
But what is peculiar about this is that it may be transformed into different novelties like a hiking pole or a bug catcher to which users may attach a net and add to its functions, apart from typing on it.
The layout is interchangeable between the standard QWERTY and the ASCII code layout, depending on one's needs. Nevertheless, it is a wireless keyboard that may connect to smartphones and computers for its standard features.
You Need a 3D Printer for This
Google Japan is not selling this Gboard Stick, rather, it brings the schematics of the device for users to 3D print and assembles on their own, recommending the use of a soldering iron to make it function. The Gboard Stick's design documents are available on GitHub for users to view and download for their next project in creating this unique keyboard.
Google and its Technology
The renowned multinational Big Tech company has multiple operations in the world, and for each region, the company operates and delivers on what it needs, suiting Google's technology for the country. One of the latest news from Google's worldwide operations is with Google China, with the tech company disabling Google Translate in the country.
There are also global products available from Google and one of them is the upcoming smartphone lineup from the company, the Pixel 7 series, along with its accessories.
Different types of technology develop and debut from Google for many years now, and the company centers on many needs and wants of the consumers as well. The company is more than its origins of being an internet company and provides the world with one of the most powerful search engines available now.
Google Japan brought some of the most unconventional devices in the world, and it is something that provides novelty and enjoyment for the people in the country, as well as on the international scene. The new Gboard Stick may not be as functional as one knows it, but it has other purposes aside from being a keyboard for one's needs.
