Oh, the image quality of the keys is quite representative of what one could expect in reality I bet. Just a bunch of tiny color screens like on a newer mobile phone. I was insinuating that the "photographs" of the product are in fact, not photographs, but wholly computer generated images. Since I am often engaged in creation of that type of image at my job for design purposes, if they are computer renderings, they are impressive. Of course when you have a team, it is a bit easier. Look at the people involved. Artemy conceived of and drew out how the product and graphics would look, not sure what Timur did, Alexey built the mathematical 3D data, Nikolai rendered the 3D data, Anna was the intern that had to do any the boring stuff. It is virtually impossible for one person to both design and create images of that quality single-handedly, though many are close I would bet. If I applied myself and got a little more training, I bet I could come close with enough time. Well, maybe... I wonder what software they used?
