1.Pick the Right Material: We choose silicone that lets light through, often clear or slightly see-through, and add colors as needed.
2.Design the Layout: We plan where the keys go and which parts should light up, like letters or symbols.
3.Shape It: The silicone is pressed into shape using a mold, like making a cookie.
4.Add Colors: We paint or print on the keypad to control where light shows, using layers that block or let light pass.
5.Laser Etching: A laser removes paint in specific spots, so light can shine through, like carving a design.
6.Put It Together: We add tiny LED lights to make the keypad glow, making sure they fit just right.
7.Check It Works: We test everything to ensure the keys work and the light is bright and even.
This process makes sure the keypad is both functional and durable, ready for your device.
