KY-PC-I-BR Braille Keyboard With Trackball and Aluminum Back Panel
KY-PC-I-BR is a 66 key Braille keyboard with an integrated trackball on a 400*124mm panel. The 304 stainless steel keys sit over a 3mm aluminum alloy back panel, which is what carries the waterproof and vandalproof rating.
Product Overview
KY-PC-I-BR is a 66 key Braille keyboard with an integrated trackball on a 400*124mm panel. The 304 stainless steel keys sit over a 3mm aluminum alloy back panel, which is what carries the waterproof and vandalproof rating. Function keys and combination keys can be defined to the customer specification, so the accessible layout can follow an existing application.
- 66 Braille keys with an integrated trackball avoid a separate accessible pointing device
- 3mm aluminum alloy back panel gives the assembly its vandalproof structure
- 400*124mm panel is the same size front and overall, simplifying the cutout
- Customized function keys or combination keys map to an existing application
- RoHS, IP65, FCC and CE approvals support public sector tenders
- Key trip available at 1.5mm/2mm to suit operator preference
Application Scenarios

How It Compares
| Braille keyboard with touchpad | A trackball gives continuous directional control that many non-sighted users find easier to judge than a flat pad |
|---|---|
| Keyboard with sheet metal backing | A 3mm aluminum alloy back panel resists the deflection that cracks solder joints under impact |
Use Guide
- Cut a 400*124mm aperture; front panel and overall size match
- Specify key trip as 1.5mm or 2mm at order stage
- Supply the function and combination key map before production
- Choose rear or front mounting to suit the fascia
