Hall-effect keyboards spent three years convincing gamers that magnetic switches were worth the premium over mechanical ones. Now a different sensor is muscling in on that story. Tunneling magnetoresistance, or TMR, showed up at CES 2026 promising sharper signal resolution and lower power draw than the Hall-effect sensors inside boards like the Wooting 60HE v2…

In this work, we address this limitation by establishing a series of…
