An automatic keyboard is a type of keyboard that is equipped with sensors that detect the presence of the user's hands and allow for the keys to be pressed without the need for physical force. There are a number of synonyms for this type of keyboard, including touch-sensitive keyboard, touch keyboard, smart keyboard, electronic keyboard, and sensor keyboard. These types of keyboards are especially useful for individuals who suffer from repetitive strain injuries or other conditions that make it difficult to use a traditional computer keyboard. They can also be useful for individuals who need to type quickly and accurately, such as data entry professionals or gamers.
