Technical probe of keyboard latency, interesting but hardware-focused and not core to reader.
Summary
A browser-based tool runs a 3.5-minute test alternating reaction time and paced tapping blocks to measure keyboard latency. Users tap keys in response to a green rectangle or a blinking yellow dot, then submit results with keyboard type (e.g., built-in laptop, external mechanical) and connection method (USB, Bluetooth). The aggregated data aims to reveal latency differences across hardware and connection types.
