A Short History of Membrane Switches
The first real membrane switches came to market in the early 1980s, and the membrane was polycarbonate. However, they were dismissed because the material was brittle, leading to cracks around the keys. They were based on resistive technology and responded to pressure. The switches consist of two conductive layers separated by a spacer. When pressed, the spacer compresses and voltage flows between the two layers.

MomDoesReviews - review of the new FokusLabs Re-Vibe
The Re-Vibe was designed to meet the needs of all different students in a school setting, including those with ADHD and autism. It is pre-programmed, with four settings; mildly off task, moderately off task, severely off task, and homework mode. It uses a Patent-Pending algorithm to randomize vibrations at certain times. This keeps the user from getting used to the vibrations because they feel different and there is no set pattern.
