Creating the correct tactile response required from a custom rubber keypad has been simplified by using the free rubber keypad design tool from Diamond HMI.

The tool has examples of keys with various strokes and actuation forces along with examples of different shore hardness’s of silicone rubber. Once a suitable feel has been specified, Diamond HMI’s team will help a designer develop a suitable key design for their application.
