The Electric Foam is the ultimate upgrade for your Asterisk steno keyboard. You just stick the Electric Foam on your keys and instantly feel the difference. The foam creates a soft landing for your fingers and allows you to differentiate the boundaries of each key. The foam creates an extremely premium feel when you write with the Asterisk. Each key stroke is pleasant.
The foam is wrapped in conductive fabric, which is the secret to what makes the capacitive touch sensing work. The fabric is soft to the touch and feels like regular fabric, despite being made of metal. This is because the metal is extremely thin, and woven into a tight mesh.
Personally, I believe the Electric Foam upgrade matches the writing experience of a professional steno machine. It may even be better an a professional steno machine. It has zero-gram actuation force. The lightest touch will activate the keys. The only other keyboard on the market that has zero-gram, zero-travel, actuation is the Lightspeed, which is more than 100 times more expensive.
The Electric Foam is a highly recommended modification to the Asterisk. Enhance your steno experience today by purchasing the Electric Foam.
