On January 10, 2025, foostan, designer of the left-right split column staggered layout keyboard, updated his social networking site and released a rendering of the Corne Ultra Low Profile.
The key switches are expected to be Kailh PG1316S, which was developed for notebooks.

Dedicated keycaps also appear to be available.

As for keyboards using the same keyswitch, the ” mikefive ” featured in KBD News uses it.

Believe it or not, it is only 5 mm thin.
The goal will probably be something like this.

The same keyboard also appears in this content presented at the end of the year.

However, there appear to be “a few things that need to be done” to achieve ultra-thinness.
We expect it to appear within 2025!
