Irvine, CA – June 9, 2011
Staco Systems, the preeminent provider of dependable, high precision Human-Machine Interface (HMI) solutions, was selected to provide an 88-key panel mount keyboard designed for use in an aerial surveillance system for a primary European customer. The keyboard can be integrated into the control console of many applications such as the air systems and simulators.

This compact keyboard features an ultra-slim profile based on Molded Elastomer Technology (MET) with an embedded design for green LED backlight illumination and 5-level dimming features. It is rugged, rated IP65 waterproof compliant and meets MIL-810 and MIL-461 specifications.

Staco Systems was selected for this project due to its extensive experience in designing military grade rugged keyboards that meet stringent EMI and environmental requirements as well as its Quality Management System's compliance with AS9100B standards.

"Again, Staco Systems has demonstrated that we can take on a tough job in an incredibly short timeframe for a rugged product development in the market."
