1. Basic Explanation of Rapid Trigger Functionality
Rapid Trigger is an advanced feature of magnetic switch keyboards. Utilizing a specialized algorithm, this feature allows the keyboard to dynamically activate and deactivate keys based on the travel distance during a keypress, as opposed to relying on a fixed actuation point within the key's travel range. This results in dynamic adjustment of the actuation point, enabling instant activation of the key when you intend to press it and immediate deactivation when you intend to release it. The functionality achieves quicker repetitive key responses and more precise key actuation control. Essentially, it eliminates all latency caused by the vertical movement of the switch, which could potentially exceed 50ms. As a result, it offers a decisive advantage in games that require rapid responses and quick key presses.
