The choice of effective colors used for our Keys-U-SeeTM Large Print Keyboards is not arbitrary but is guided by innate human visual and cognitive mechanisms. Certain color combinations enable better detection and improved legibility of text. Brightness contrast, along with size and viewing distance, is the prime determinant of print legibility. High brightness contrast is created by some color combinations but not by others. Black/white and black/yellow are the best custom keyboard combination because they provide the highest brightness contrast. Independent research studies have confirmed by experiments showing black/white and black/yellow produce best legibility. Further, Positive contrast is the case of a light object on a dark background such as white print on a black field. In our case, we offer brilliant yellow keys contrast against a black keyboard and black lettering which has proved to be our most popular custom keyboard model for individuals with vision problems.

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I bought this for the entertainment room where the lighting is usually kept subdued and I thought the large keys would be easier to see.
I have no problem with seeing the keys, however, the mouse and receiver are very reluctant to communicate with each other. I have tried several different brands of batteries, but makes no difference. It takes several attempts to get the initial connection and I have to re-connect constantly. Sometimes the mouse will work and the keyboard doesn't, but most times it is usally the mouse with the problem.The other annoying problem with this is the occasional lag time from when you click on an item, it sometimes takes 3,4 or 5 seconds for the computer to acknowledge that you have done anything. If you are an impatient person, this setup will be very frustrating and infuriating to use. I have since stepped up and purchased a Logitech wireless which doesn't have the large print on the keys,but works flawlessly. It looks like other people have had good luck with these, but I will never buy another or recommend this to
anyone.
