Abstract
A keyboard includes an elastic element disposed above a bottom case, a light emitter, a light receiver, a pressing element, and a keycap. When a force toward the bottom case is applied to a top surface of the elastic element, a relationship between a force to move the top surface and a distance from the top surface to the bottom case is in a negative correlation in a path of the top surface from a first position to a second position, and a relationship between a force to move the top surface and a distance from the top surface to the bottom case is in a positive correlation in a path of the top surface from the second position to a third position. The light emitter, the light receiver, and the pressing element are disposed above the elastic element. The keycap is disposed above the pressing element.
