An average human’s reaction time is 300-500ms, while a pro gamer can reach 200ms through training. The total trip time for a key press to register after the finge-cap contact can however easily reach >100 ms, much of it spent on the key descenting to the actuation point. A magnetic switch cuts this trip by half by separating the process of actuation, accomplished at the speed of light through the Hall effect, from the tactile feedback, which can take as long as you want afterwards to assure your finger of its occurrence. And if you are as drawn to extreme performance as iron is to magnet, then the infamous rapid trigger mode is definitely for you.

0.1mm, 3.3mm, or exactly .10 of an inch...with both high dynamic range and travel resolution Field75 HE got your back whether you want to be the fastest gun in the West, or tune your rhythm in sync with that particular spell's cooldown timer.

Ready for your next move before the first hit even lands on the enemy? With just 0.01mm of break, your trusted companion will execute commands instantly and repeatedly. In rapid trigger mode, Field75 HE handles even the most complex maneuvers seamlessly and effortlessly, as if it were an extension of your nervous system. The new Pro feature allows you to perform two different actions with a single press and release.

High precision and minimized errors also enable true analog input, as you can now pack a recorded amount of information and up to 4 actions in one stroke. Combos, spellcastings, macros….can all become chords in the music that follows your finger, whose tempo you will decide-among 2 positions out of 40 in the downmove, and another 2 in the upmove.

The switches are only half of the story, every component in the signal’s pathway from the switch must run reliably at an even higher speed to fully unleash its potential. The requirements are staggering, the specs of the hardware even more so: MCU clocked at 144MHz, 8000Hz polling rate, only 0.5ms of total latency from the key activation to its registering….through their amazing skills our engineering team has pulled together this feat.

With greater processing power comes faster responses. All that 8000Hz polling back and forth requires one big bad MCU to handle, and our Nu1 is the right chip for the job. It has a clock rate of 144MHz, support for USB 2.0 data transmission, and 256kb of flash. In real world tests it is able to cut the total latency to 0.5ms, a full 15% improvement of 8000Hz performance over the best our competitors have to offer.

Hit all the right notes. Many little, subtle things need to be gotten right, before a mere 0.02mm of change in travel can be properly resolved, not just detected. Even slight vibrations can cause big deviations in readings, so does disturbances in the baseline voltage. In Field75 HE, not only did we design the TOP mounting structure, the electronics, the error-controlling process for every component all around the need to reduce errors and inter-key inconsistencies, the assembly and testing in the supply chain also need to be managed accordingly. At the end of the day, it is the <0.01mm error produced by the whole approach that makes fine-tuning the actuation distance useful for the users for the first time.

Race without running into each others. The race to a lower latency starts when the transverse voltage builds up in the Hall effect sensors, individually packaged and powered from the LEDs they retain their sensititity even when the RGB effects are maxed out. Similar arrangments at the end of the signals' journey ensures the MCU is at full throttle handling their arrivals, utilizing a self-developed filtering algorithm that picks them at industry-leading accuracy and speed.

Ghostbar on board.
Yes, GhostBar is totally coming to Field HE too! Same noise suppression and sound harmonization NuPhy tech except that you can now try it at 10x speed.

The dark side goes bright.
The world's second keyboard with south facing shine through keycaps, and the first magnetic one is here. Do the bold fonts and audacious colorways look even more disruptive with the EM energy coursing through them?
