Keyboard with OLED screen for MacBook, why not?
What if the Touch Bar turned into a keyboard for the MacBook?
In the most recent redesign of the MacBook Pro, Apple introduced the Touch Bar - a strip of OLED display that replaces the function keys above the keyboard. According to Apple Insider, Apple may well go beyond this original idea with a new patent for OLED keyboards.
The patent, first reported by Patently Apple , has '2 screens, better and less reflective' and describes two versions of the device. One of them is quite similar to MacBook with 2 monitors connected by a hinge, the rest is a screen with the keyboard like an accessory.
Will there be a keyboard entirely with OLED screens?
This patent also describes the use of poles to reduce the reflection of two screens together. This is a smart and necessary solution if Apple actually creates such a real device.
Of course this is still only a patent and there is still no certainty. But this idea also helps us to be less frustrated with the Touch Bar, maybe it's not too bad.
