Funkeyz is a modular keyboard with a frame that fits onto tablets and makes typing easier for people with physical and cognitive disabilities. The keyboard is easy to modify to specificness, allowing for different combinations of keys to be centered in one place. The “keys” for Funkeyz can be printed on a 3D printer and assembled in a different combinations legos style, and the keyboard layout on a tablet can be altered to match individual needs.
The need is to help people with physical and cognitive disabilities to write faster.
The original need knower was a friend of the team named Ofer, but another participant in TOM named Liron was also very excited to be able to use the product.
