role as enabler

So, how do you bring interactivity to traditional keys?

First, small displays have to be embedded in the tops of physical keys. This is not much of a manufacturing challenge: Foxconn, the world’s largest contract manufacturer, is already making such products for United Keys.

Displays can be embedded in keys as small as those on mobile phones.

Second, software is needed to drive the keys. United Keys has a global patent portfolio (both issued and patent-pending) that encompasses the most fundamental of implementation and architecture issues: for example, how users can customize applications, the transferring of images over a network, and how software interacts with hardware (including software in the cloud).

As the need for ubiquitous interactivity builds and component costs tumble, United Keys will play an important role as enabler.
