ErgoSense: Asus Ergosense Keyboard, Comfortable Typing Experience

Your comfort is our highest priority. That’s why the asus ergosense keyboard has an incredibly satisfying feel, with the optimum key bounce and travel calculated with fine-tuned precision. Experience the ergosense keyboard and you’ll soon find yourself cruising effortlessly through your work.

Full-sized Keyboard 19.05 Mm

The full-size 19.05 mm key pitch is the same as a desktop keyboard so you can whizz through your work with superb typing comfort and accuracy.

Dished Key Caps 0.2 Mm

The 0.2 mm key-cap dish is designed to match the shape of your fingertips so your fingers are gently guided to the ideal contact point with the keys.

Long Key Travel 1.4 Mm

The long 1.4 mm key travel lets you type without having to use too much force. And the special asus-designed rubber dome guarantees your click force is met with just the right tactile bump you need for a nice grip.

0.1 Mm Key Cap Relief

When fully depressed, the keys on the ergosense keyboard don’t sink below the level of the keyboard deck. The key caps remain at least 0.1 mm above the chassis surface, providing you with a comfortable, ergonomic typing experience.

Enhance Number Key Layout

Blitz through data-crunching tasks with the enhanced number key layout! This features hotkeys for the calculator, ce and +/- functions, along with increased spacing to match the full-size key pitch for more intuitive number entry.

Optimal Click Ratio: Engineered to Perfection

The feel of a keyboard depends on the crucial ratio between the peak force (also known as the actuation force) and the contact force. Peak force occurs when you press down on the key and reach the maximum force that the key’s underlying rubber dome can withstand without deflecting. Contact force occurs when the bottom of the key touches the circuit board to trigger an electronic signal, which in turn generates the action appropriate to the key. To achieve the most natural feel for a keyboard, asus keyboard experts have scientifically determined that the optimal ergonomic click ratio for a key is between 45-60%. These forces are precisely measured and tuned using the asus-designed rubber domes beneath the keys.

Asus Antimicrobial Guard Plus: Inhibit 99% of Covid-19, Flu Virus & Bacteria*

Asus antimicrobial guard plus is applied to frequently touched areas of your laptop to help keep it hygienic. This technology uses a denser treatment* that inhibits viruses and bacteria. And it is scientifically shown — using the iso 2170210 and 2219611 standards — to inhibit virus and bacteria growth by more than 99% over a 24-hour period4. Strains used for the tests include the sars-cov-2 (covid-19), h3n2 (influenza a) and the e. Coli bacterium12.

* ISO 21702 tests for COVID-19, H3N2, H1N1 and ISO 22196 tests for Staphylococcus and E. coli.

* Treatments[13] are approved by US FIFRA[14] & EU BPR[15].

Asus Antimicrobial Guard Plus: Viruses and Bacteria Inhibition

Viruses and bacteria are everywhere in our daily life. Antimicrobial guard plus inhibits all viruses and bacteria with an envelope (the outermost layer of many types of viruses and bacteria) from the surface of the protected parts. Iso 21702 testing shows that it can inhibit the growth of sars-cov-2 (covid-19), h1n1, h3n2 (influenza a) and harmful bacteria.

Sars-cov-2 Virus (Covid-19)

Since 2020, COVID-19 has ravaged the globe. More than 580M people[17] worldwide have been infected.

Influenza a (H3n2)

The influenza a and b viruses that routinely spread in people are responsible for seasonal flu epidemics each year[18].

E. Coli

Escherichia coli (abbreviated as e. Coli) are bacteria found in the environment, foods. Although most strains of e. Coli are harmless, others can make you sick[19].

ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus: Silver Ions Prevents 99% Reproduction

Asus antimicrobial guard plus is a surface coating[20] On the laptop[21] That contains positively-charged silver ions. Silver ions and negatively-charged microbial cells are attracted to each other and then pierce the surface to damage their structure, inhibiting reproduction.

Check out the video:

Without asus antimicrobial guard plus, an estimated sample of 10,000 (pfu/ml) cells grew to 28,000 (pfu/ml). Performing the same test with antimicrobial guard plus saw the count reduced to just 16 (pfu/ml) — a growth restriction of more than 99%.

With the upgraded system enabled via the myasus app, it detects and optimizes audio from either one direction or from all directions — ensuring top conference call audio quality.

Single Presenter Conference Call

Single-presenter conference call mode can filter out noise and other voices, and ensures only the voice in front of laptop can be heard. When you switch on the Target Speaker Tracking mode it can even target and track new talkers within a 180° arc, making the feature ideal for recording large groups as well as for individuals.

Multi-presenter Conference Call

Multi-presenter conference call mode filters out ambient noise whilst identifying multiple voices from all directions and distances, so all voices can be heard more clearly.

1.Ai noise cancelingMaximum RAM capacity may vary according to device configuration.

2.Maximum SSD capacity may vary according to device configuration.

3.Charges the battery to up to 60% within 49 minutes when the system is off or in Standby mode. Power adapter with a minimum capacity of 45 watts is required. After charging has reached 60% capacity, charging will resume at normal rate. Charging time may vary +/-10% due to system tolerance.

4.Clinical testing using the ISO 21702 and ISO 22196 standard protocol proved that viral and bacterial growth were inhibited by 99% over a 24-hour period. A 99% reduction in potentially harmful microorganisms is defined as the number of viruses and bacteria on the surface dropping from 1,000,000 (cfu/pfu) to 100 (cfu/pfu).

5.Backlit keyboard, integrated fingerprint sensor and touch screen are optional.

6.The testing regime includes the requirements of both military-grade standards and ASUS quality tests, and varies depending on device. MIL-STD-810 testing is conducted on selected ASUS products only. Note that the MIL-STD-810 testing helps to ensure the quality of ASUS products but does not indicate a particular fitness for military use. The test is performed under laboratory conditions. Any damage caused by attempts to replicate these test conditions would be considered accidental, and would not be covered by the standard ASUS warranty. Additional coverage is available with ASUS Premium Care.

7.WiFi 6E is backwards-compatible with legacy 802.11 specs. Actual performance of WiFi 6E may vary in real-world situations.

8.To properly enable Iris® Xe Graphics the system must be in dual-channel memory configuration.

9.The screen-to-body ratio is calculated based on the visible body area of the display when the laptop is opened to 90° and the active display area.

10.ISO 21702 specifies proper methods for measuring antiviral activity on plastics and other non-porous surfaces of antiviral-treated products. Test Viruses used in this International Standard are as follows: Influenza: An enveloped virus known to cause respiratory tract infection in humans. Feline calicivirus: A non-enveloped virus used in place of noroviruses known to cause enteric pathogens due to similar biological properties.

11.ISO 22196:2011 specifies a method of evaluating the antibacterial activity of antibacterial-treated plastics, and other non-porous, surfaces of products (including intermediate products).

12.COVID-19, H3N2, H1N1, E. coli and Staphylococcus tests were performed by independent third-party laboratories: Boken Quality Evaluation Institute, Japan Textile Products Quality and Technology Center, and National Defense Medical Center.

13.Antimicrobial treatments are manufactured by Co-Action Corporation.

14.The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) is the Federal statute that governs the registration, distribution, sale, and use of pesticides in the United States.

15.The Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR, Regulation (EU) 528/2012) concerns the placing on the market and use of biocidal products, which are used to protect humans, animals, materials or articles against harmful organisms like pests or bacteria, by the action of the active substances contained in the biocidal product.

16.Note that the protective effects of ASUS Antimicrobial Guard were tested by ASUS on April 26, 2021, and follow the ISO 22196 method on our specially-treated test samples. The tests provide a simulation of three years of wear and tear, and include exposure to salt spray, thermal shocks, and both alcohol and wool-felt tests. Actual effective antibacterial-protection period may vary depending on product configuration and usage. ​

20.The actual composition of ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus may vary.

21.ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus is applied to the laptop areas that users touch most frequently, including the palm rest area and keyboard. However, fingerprint sensor, touchpad and non-backlit keyboards use Antimicrobial Guard. A sticker on the laptop will help to identify the device is covered by Antimicrobial Guard Plus or Antimicrobial Guard due to different spec configuration. ​

22.Selected products are tested using enhanced military-grade MIL-STD-810H durability standards, with 12 test methods and 26 test procedures, to ensure extraordinary toughness. Based on ASUS internal market research using available information and testing reports from main laptop brand websites on Oct 28, 2022, ASUS consumer laptops use a regime consisting of 26 test procedures, which is the consumer laptop industry’s strictest and most extensive test regime for the MIL-STD-810H standard.

23.EPEAT registered where applicable. EPEAT registration varies by country. See www.epeat.net for registration status by country.

24.Percentage varies according to device configuration.
