Google just designed a crazy infinite donut keyboard you didn’t know you needed

Nothing brings me more joy than perfectly designed, perfectly functional, and perfectly silly gadgets. And Google Japan is the best at creating them.

Google Japan has just released a new type of hardware keyboard. It calls it Gboard double-sided, aka the “Infinity Keyboard.” I call it the Krispy Kreme because it looks like a donut. The device is actually an infinite loop with keys on both sides. (Also, it’s a joke, built to promote the real software-based Gboard that you can use on Android and iPhone devices.) But even though it’s just a stunt that started as an April fool back in 2019, the keyboard actually works and you can build one yourself following the open-source schematics, 3D-printable STL files, and firmware, all available on GitHub.
