- HyperSpace Trackpad Pro promises precision haptics and pressure-sensitive control
- Hydra Connect software adds customizable gestures and shortcuts at the system level
- Kickstarter campaign surpasses funding goal with strong response from backers
Now available on Kickstarter, the HyperSpace Trackpad Pro is a precision external trackpad built for Windows users.
It combines piezo-haptic feedback with pressure sensing and adjustable controls aimed at improving precision.
As of this writing, the campaign has already raised over $116,000 in pledges from over a thousand backers, far surpassing its initial goal of $5,000, with more than a month left.
Hydra Connect Software
Pricing options include a $90 VIP pledge, a $109 Super Early Bird tier, and a $120 Early Bird tier, with a planned retail price of $150.
Hyper Products, the creators behind the device, say it offers uniform haptic feedback across its entire glass surface, eliminating dead zones found on many mechanical touch panels.
The trackpad’s minimalist design uses a CNC-machined aluminum casing with a smooth glass surface and rubber feet for stability.
It promises fast and precise gesture control with a 240Hz report rate and multi-touch recognition for up to ten inputs.
The included Hydra Connect software gives users control over how the trackpad behaves, allowing for custom profiles and gesture-based shortcuts for individual apps.
It’s compatible with Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite, and Figma out of the box, and profiles change automatically every time you switch apps.
Hydra Connect can also trigger system-level actions, such as launching apps, muting calls, controlling media, and managing windows.
These shortcuts can make life easier and give you more control over whatever you’re working on without the need for a mouse or keyboard.
As Yanko Design As you say, Windows pros and creators looking for an external trackpad finally have one that rivals MacBooks, and I’d definitely be tempted to replace my boring old mouse with it.
