ABSTRACT:
An electrical switch system, which is comprised of a relatively long electrical conductor or conductors disposed on a flexible resilient film having, at or near one end, an electrical connector or separable, electrical connectors, and at or near the other end, an electrical switch or switches. Also disclosed is the method of manufacture of such extension electrical switch system. The invention is particularly useful in providing switches at more convenient locations for manual operation, such as being able to control the output of a computer keyboard from a nearby, more convenient location, say, by the hand, when it is also operating a mouse as if a key on the keyboard had been depressed. The switches used are those commonly referred to as touch-type switches, membrane switches or film switches.
