However, advanced haptics that simulates the edge of a real keyboard can potentially overcome the issue. Haptic feedback and vibrations do not quite match up to the feeling of pressing hardware keys that many typists are accustomed to. One of the biggest obstacles to creating a touch-based keyboard is replicating the feel of a real hardware keyboard.

Apple may opt for something similar by deploying a hardware dynamic keyboard. The Touch Bar seen in the current generation MacBook lineup is still present in the concept design. Losing the hardware keyboard can allow MacBooks to be a lot more productive and it can also lead to even thinner laptops. While a touchscreen keyboard is unlikely, the design by Kasap may point towards what future laptop keyboards may look like. Industry experts are expecting some innovative changes in the upcoming lineup of MacBook Pro devices scheduled for announcement at the upcoming Apple conference in September.

In order to get the keyboard working I just needed AppleKeyboardInstaller64.exe and BootCamp.msi from BootCamp/Drivers/Apple. Apple innovated the recent MacBook lineup with its Butterfly keyboard that comes with a dynamic touchscreen bar.
