Hall effect keyboards are a type of keyboard that uses the Hall effect to detect keypresses. The Hall effect is a physical phenomenon that occurs when a magnetic field is applied to a conductor. In a Hall effect keyboard, a magnet is placed under each key, and when a key is pressed, the magnet moves and creates a magnetic field. The Hall effect sensor in the keyboard detects the magnetic field and sends a signal to the computer, which registers the keypress.
Hall effect keyboards are known for their durability and reliability. They are also spill-resistant and dust-resistant, making them ideal for use in harsh environments. Additionally, Hall effect keyboards typically have a longer lifespan than traditional keyboards.
