The KeyboardBy Dylan B
Inventors Christopher Latham Sholes created the typewriter keyboard in 1868. Seven years later Christopher Sholes with the help of Amos Densmore  rearranged the keyboard to make the common “QWERTY” keyboard in 1875 which is still used today. Christopher Sholes
How Does It Work? Each key on the keyboard has an electrical switch, which closes an electrical circuit. This creates a keystroke signal, which is processed by the keyboard's onboard processing chip.  This chip then converts the keystroke into what is known as a "scan code."  This scan code is transmitted to the computer, which then processes the scan code into either part of a system command, or displays it in the currently selected text entry field.
How Has The Size Changed?  In some designs the keyboard has become smaller but most new keyboards are created the same size. The keyboard stays the same size to be the same size as your fingertips.
How The Design Changed? The keyboard has changed its design in many ways since being created. But rarely changed size. The Ergonomic Keyboard. Designed to minimize muscle strain in the fingers and hands.
Types of Keyboards Virtual keyboards like the one below project a full-size keyboard onto a flat surface. Sensors in the projector determine what keys have been pressed. Foldable Keyboard Made of soft plastic for easy travel. These are waterproof and are commonly used in hospitals because they can be disinfected. I-Tech Virtual Laser Keyboard
