New Gboard Conveyor: Genius or Absurd?

Heard about Google Japan's latest keyboard concept, and it's quite something. They've apparently developed a "Gboard Conveyor Belt Version" where keys literally rotate on a belt, and you just wait for the character you need to arrive at your fingertips. It's a wild idea, with claims of "streamlining typing" and even features like a "high speed mode" and "nail care" key caps being floated. Knowing Google Japan's track record with their quirky rotary and long-stick keyboards, this definitely fits their pattern of unconventional tech. Honestly, while it's completely impractical, it's refreshing to see a big tech company still embrace such a whimsical and genuinely funny project, bringing back a bit of that old internet charm.
