  • Google Japan has made a Gboard hat that types everything and also protects you from the sun.
  • You can actually make the hat yourself with a 3D printer or even cardboard.
  • It’s an actual head-turning device.

Google Japan’s latest DIY innovation is a hat shaped like a giant keycap. It’s obviously something you will never be able to buy, but it looks like you can make one yourself if you’re so inclined.

So how does this head-turning device work? Well, Google Japan’s Gboard team has a video that explains it all. Essentially, you wear the Gboard hat and rotate it from side to side. After adjusting the characters to be input according to the angle of the head, you press the device to confirm.
