Magic Trackpad for Windows – An advanced external trackpad with precise piezo haptic feedback and app-specific macro settings, designed to maximize trackpad usability in Windows environments.
It has been difficult to find a high-performance trackpad experience familiar to Mac users in the Windows environment.
Existing external trackpads for Windows are slow to respond and have limited gesture support, leading designers to prefer the Apple Magic Trackpad.
Additionally, there were limitations in input methods using only a keyboard and mouse for creative tasks, and there was a demand for customized input devices that could reduce repetitive actions for each software.
In other words, there was a lack of input solutions with precision and customizability in the Windows environment.
The industry's first premium haptic trackpad designed exclusively for Windows, equipped with a piezo-based haptic motor that precisely implements click sensations.
It achieves near-zero input latency with an ultra-high-speed sampling rate of 240Hz, enabling pixel-level precision control with the trackpad even during detailed graphic work or video editing.
Independent pressure sensing technology recognizes the intensity of pressure from up to 10 fingers simultaneously, expanding the input dimension by assigning commands according to pressure levels.
Custom gesture/shortcut mapping is possible for each app via the dedicated software, Hydra Connect. For example, in Photoshop, you can set a user-defined gesture zone, using part of the trackpad as a color palette selection area.
A sharing ecosystem is also built to share and utilize other users' profiles through the community. The fact that users can collaborate to create optimal workflows is also a differentiating factor from existing products.
Creative professionals such as graphic designers and video editors are the main target, and they value precise input and shortcut operations, making them the demand base for this product.
In addition, office professionals with a lot of multitasking (such as Excel power users) can also utilize multi-gesture programs.
Sales are mainly B2C, with initial distribution through creator equipment specialty shopping malls or early adopter communities such as Kickstarter.
At the corporate level, design agencies may adopt it in bulk as special equipment.
Since anyone using a Windows PC globally can use it, the potential market is broad, but unlike the Mac camp where the trackpad usage culture is established, the actual demand base may be limited in Windows where mouse preference is strong.
The price is also around $129, which is higher than a regular mouse, so a market focused on enthusiastic users is expected.
In the future, business expansion can be sought by developing Hydra Connect software to expand into the productivity controller field (e.g., Elgato Stream Deck alternative) or by collaborating with laptop manufacturers to supply built-in modules.
It is basically a niche product group, but there is a possibility of gradually expanding the base as the number of creators increases.
Winning the CES 2026 Innovation Award, it has garnered attention with evaluations such as *"A Magic Trackpad-level peripheral has finally appeared on Windows."
Windows-centric media commented that *"Hyper has narrowed the area that Apple has been ahead of for years,"* and is receiving a lot of attention from users who prefer trackpads.
On the other hand, there are cautious views on explosive popularization due to indications such as "still a limited user base" and "learning curve compared to a mouse" regarding marketability.
The evaluation of the technology implementation itself is very positive, and there are many opinions that it has been underestimated as a productivity improvement tool that did not exist before (meaning it should receive more attention).
⚠️ Impressive technology but market uncertainty (Positive reviews for the new attempt of a Windows trackpad, but popularization is uncertain due to barriers in usage culture and niche demand)
