Makore mashoma apfuura Apple yakaisa patent yekhibhodi ine Force Kubata kana 3D Kubata kugona. Iyo patent chaiyo yakapihwa munaGunyana 28, 2012 yakamisikidzwa "Ultra yakaderera yekufamba keyboard" uye izvo zvapihwa nhasi.
Yakadaro patent inoratidza keyboard ine sensor kune yega yega kiyi iyo inoyera simba rinoitwa pakiyi kana mushandisi achimanikidza kana kuzorora chigunwe pakiyi. Izvi zvaizoshanda ku shandisa zviratidzo ruzivo kuratidza mazano kumushandisi kana kuwana mhinduro yekuti mushandisi anoshandisa sei keyboard.
Kubva pane zvandiri kunzwisisa kubva pane zvinotsanangurwa patent, zvinoenderana nedzvinyiriro yakapihwa Pane kiyi, iko kushanda pasi peiyo software layer inogona «kududzira» iyo kumanikidza nekuda kwechiyero chinoitwa ne sensor kuita chimwe kana chimwe chiito, ndiko kuti, semuenzaniso mushoko processor kana tikadhinda chero kiyi zvinogona kunge zvichiratidza kuti tsamba yakatarwa yakapihwa mari pasina kushandisa kiyi yekuchinja panguva imwechete yatinobaya chirevo chakanzi
Nenzwi iri pazasi pemakiyi, iyo keyboard ine «ultra-pfupi» kufamba, ndokuti, makiyi aisazomanikidzwa neakajairwa mafambiro, asi zvingave zvishomaIzvi zvinodaro nekuti mune yakajairwa keyboard isu tinofanirwa kuve neakakura mafambiro kuitira kumanikidza switch kana mashini akabatanidzwa kune wekubata kuitira kuti iyo system inyore the keystroke. Nekuti ma sensors emagetsi anokwanisa kunyoresa shanduko diki pane chero kumanikidzwa.
Yeuka kuti Apple yakatangisa nguva pfupi yadarika mashandiro matsva mumakhibhodi ako ine butterfly mashini panzvimbo yechinyakare chigero, chinoita kuti kufamba kushome, kudzikisira chimiro chekhibhodi kukwanisa kuisanganisa nemidziyo inotakurika kuonda. Nhanho inotevera ichave yekubatanidza tekinoroji iyi mumakhibhodi iwayo.
