The self-sanitizing keyboard will use ultraviolet light to kill harmful micro-organisms in seconds. The keyboard will look and feel the same as a standard computer keyboard. To engage the cleaning cycle, the keyboard will protract into a light-tight enclosure which will bath it in the UV light. It can be retracted for use by the wave of hand over the motion sensor.

The idea is to develop a keyboard which keys will lay absolutely flat until activated. The keyboard is supposed to reduce the amount of errors usually made on virtual keyboards. The keys will lay flat during travel, and can be elevated by pressing a mechanical button. The actual mechanism that will raise the keys will be strong enough to support and raise the keys an even 2.2 mm.
