The keyboard is provided with its share of custom-built options, together with a mini show for QR codes, a cradle for the glasses, and {custom} LEDs for monitoring the keyboard relying on how vibrant your environment are.
As for normal options, the keyboard has two USB-C ports, each of which assist energy supply quick charging (as much as 65 watts), DisplayPort 1.4 (for exterior Full-HD display assist), and SuperSpeed USB as much as 10 gigabits per second. There’s a 3.5-mm headphone jack too. And it packs assist for Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and 5G (Sub-6) connectivity, so you possibly can join a mouse or different equipment.
The keyboard additionally has a 5-megapixel digital camera sensor (2,560 x 1,920 decision) that you need to use for video calls. I did not get to check it, however I could not assist however discover that the low digital camera placement (beneath eye stage) would possibly look awkward in Zoom or Skype. It jogs my memory of the front-facing digital camera on an iPad, which sits on the aspect when the pill is in panorama mode, however you would plug in an exterior digital camera through a USB-C port.
Under the hood is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 with a Kryo 585 eight-core CPU and Adreno 650 GPU. When the Snapdragon 845 launched in 2018, it included know-how to power both AR and VR experiences. But it’s a reasonably outdated chipset at this level. Sightful says it selected the 845 partly due to its real-time computer-vision capabilities coupled with extraordinarily low battery consumption.
You additionally get 8 gigabytes of reminiscence and 256 gigabytes of storage. As for battery life, Sightful claims 5 hours at full use, which is not loads in comparison with different laptops that common 9 or 10 hours (or extra). At least you possibly can recharge the Spacetop from 0 % to 85 % in lower than two hours.
It runs the corporate’s proprietary working system, Spacetop OS. As Sightful places it, “If it’s accessible on the web, it works with Spacetop.” So you may have entry to Google Workspace, Slack, Microsoft 365, and extra, along with videoconferencing apps like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet.
Judging from these specs alone, this is not an ultra-powerful machine. It’s not meant for dealing with intensive, graphically demanding work or power-hungry applications. At most, you’ll use it for fundamental duties like net shopping, sending emails, video chatting, and messaging, concurrently.

I’ve attended lots of tech demos in my profession, and I’m used to sitting by means of lengthy tutorials earlier than laying a finger on a brand new system—or else being micromanaged the whole time. So I used to be a bit stunned when Sightful founders Tamir Berliner and Tomer Kahan positioned Spacetop in entrance of me with out first demonstrating it themselves.
