AIMPAD vs Wooting Flaretech
Interference/Noise
Both the Flaretech switch and Aimpad’s solution use
Infrared (IR) Light to determine the position of the
switch.
There are many unintended sources of IR light
including desk lamps and sunlight.
The Flaretech switch is susceptible to these other
sources of light causing unintended movement or
unintended keys to be pressed if the keyboard is
placed under a desk lamp or in direct sunlight.
The Flaretech switch uses transparent stems.
External IR light can enter the switch housing through
theses transparent stems and cause interference with
the normal operation of the switch.
Aimpad’s solution does not have this issue and
can even be used in direct sunlight.
