The API supports a global keyboard buffer so multiple devices can feed data into a common buffer as well as a buffer per device to allow each device to be used for a specific purpose. For example an application with two separate displays may choose to have a keyboard device to control each one individually.

 '''Ultibo Keyboard Interface unit'''
-''Keyboard Devices''
+'''Keyboard Devices'''
-This unit provides both the Keyboard device interface and the generic USB HID keyboard driver. The keyboard unit also provides the STDIN interface for the Run Time Library (RTL).
+This unit provides the Keyboard device interface and keyboard API to be used by both drivers and applications.
-''USB Keyboard Devices''
+The API includes functions to create, register, locate, read, write, control and configure each connected keyboard device.
-This driver currently uses HID Boot Protocol only and could be redesigned in future to use the HID Report Protocol instead to allow for greater language support etc.
+The API supports a global keyboard buffer so multiple devices can feed data into a common buffer as well as a buffer per device to allow each device to be used for a specific purpose. For example an application with two separate displays may choose to have a keyboard device to control each one individually.
