AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi Aluminum

The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi is a small USB keyboard adapter capable of typing keystroke sequences when triggered. It can be used for typing login-password combinations, email and message templates, long phrases and names, code snippets, commonly used key sequences, etc. Short keystroke sequences are used as triggers, and stored in internal flash memory. The device works as a Wi-Fi access point with a webserver, allowing quick access to configured shortcuts. The internal memory can also store typed text for backup purposes, just like a hardware keylogger.

This device loves typing

Tired of typing the same things over and over? Logging in to the same websites, typing the same email a dozen times daily, annoying names or words that you need to type every few minutes? The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi is the perfect solution. Define your most commonly used keystroke sequences, and assign triggers to them. Whenever you type the trigger, the AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi will instantly type the sequence for you.

Logins and passwords

Are you clicking "forgot password" more often than actually logging in? So many logins and passwords, that you have a post-it note on your monitor? The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi can take over the process of signing in to multiple websites. Define an unobvious trigger for each website, such as go[Alt]1 (meaning you need to type go and press Alt-1). Then define a keystroke sequence for this trigger, for example my-email@example.com[Tab]my-password[Ent] (meaning the device will type my-email@example.com, press Tab, type my-password and press Enter). All keyboard shortcut sequences are stored on internal flash memory, which is accessible through a secure Wi-Fi connection.

Repeated phrases and names

If you are typing in the same long or annoying words, phrases, sentences, or entire messages, then the AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi will relieve you from this. Simply define triggers like Let me know and sequences such as if you need any further assistance, I'm here to help! The device will notice that the trigger was typed, and will finish the sentence for you. Long words such as Micropachycephalosaurus hongtuyanensis can be shortened to a few keystrokes, such as micro (by the way, a Micropachycephalosaurus was a small herbivore dinosaur living in modern day China).

Shortcut examples

Examples of shortcuts are shown in the image. They can include website logins, email and message templates, long words and sentences, programming templates. Special keys can be used by putting abbreviations in brackets, as in the following shortcut, which will duplicate the current line in a text editor: [Sh][End][Ctl]c[End][Ent][Ctl]v. Delays may be contained within keystroke sequences by specifying the duration in seconds in brackets. The following shortcut will close Windows by calling the shutdown program from the command prompt: [CTRL][ESC][2]cmd[ENT][2]shutdown /s[ENT]

How it works

The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi passively monitors the USB bus for keystrokes with a 32X waveform oversampling algorithm based on a sophisticated FPGA chip. When it detects a series of user-defined keys (called a trigger), it will generate the corresponding sequences of keystrokes (called a sequence). This works through a low-level USB mechanism, which doesn't require any software or drivers, and is OS-independent. Both the trigger, and the sequence may contain combinations of keys and modifiers, such as [Ctl]c or [Alt][F4]. The keystroke sequence may also contains special keys and delays in brackets.

Easy configuration

The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi is quick and easy to configure. Connect to the Wi-Fi hotspot created by the device from your computer, laptop, smartphone, or tablet. You can then access the device configuration through a web browser. The webpage will contain all shortcuts and configuration options through a simple and clean WWW interface.

High security standards

The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard Wi-Fi is designed to store sensitive data, and a lot of effort has been put into making the access secure. The internal flash memory is protected by a 128-bit encryption algorithm. The internal Wi-Fi hotspot features secure authentication methods, such as WPA-2. The hotspot can also be protected by the hidden SSID option.

Keystroke logging

The device may record all keystrokes pressed on the keyboard, just like a hardware keylogger. This can be used for monitoring acceptable computer usage, as well as forensic and backup purposes. The 16MB internal flash memory is equivalent of 8000 pages of text, what corresponds to years-worth of typing. The recorded data is available through the WWW interface, formatted in a similar way as it would appear on the screen. The device is discreet and compact, making it a perfect assistant for everyday keyboard usage.

Flash drive vs. Wi-Fi

The AirDrive Keyboard Wizard comes in two variants: standard (flash drive) and Wi-Fi. The main difference is the way the device is accessed during the configuration process. The standard version can be switched into a flash drive by a special key combination, as a result of which a removeable drive will pop-up. This drive will contain a file with shortcuts named SHORTCUT.TXT, and a configuration file named CONFIG.TXT. The Wi-Fi version handles configuration differently. It creates a Wi-Fi hotspot, which you can connect to from any device with Wi-Fi such as a computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone. Once connected, the device may be accessed by a special configuration page on the built-in webserver. Both the standard and Wi-Fi versions only differ by the way they are configured. Once configured, they will respond to triggers and generate keystroke sequences in the same way. Which version shall you choose? It's a matter of personal preference. The general rule of the thumb is that the standard flash-drive version is faster to access, while the Wi-Fi version contains a more sophisticated interface with explanation dialogs and examples.

Keyboard compatibility limitations

The device will work with almost all types of physical USB keyboards (it won't work with internal laptop keyboards). It works fine with wireless keyboards, with exception of Bluetooth keyboards. Support for some gaming keyboards is not fully guaranteed, as they often use proprietary protocols.
