On: Myths about USB NKRO and how USB HID works

The Realforce 108UH-ANLG [1] can also do that and can even emulate the analog sticks and buttons used on gaming controllers. Here's a demo video of one being used as a piano [2]. You can tell that harder keypresses result in louder notes. I don't think it's been released outside of Japan yet but they have some keyboards with customizable actuation points using the same Topre switches [3].

The Steelseries Apex Pro has keys that can detect depth, but they too use it for actuation points. They keys are omnipoint.

I really (really) like my topre realforce rgb although the apex pro is very close in terms of solid feel, and has much more interesting electronics.
