Embodiments of an electronic, frameless, musical keyboard with the ability
to couple to other frameless musical keyboards are described. In one
embodiment, a first musical keyboard section includes an arrangement of
black and white keys, similar to a layout of a piano keyboard, disposed
over a base. The keys at the left and/or right sides of the keyboard
section have exposed sides, so that a second keyboard section can be
integrated with the first keyboard section to give the appearance of a
single keyboard. To integrate the first keyboard section with the second
keyboard section, the base of the first keyboard section extends past the
right-most key to a width and length that is substantially equal to the
dimensions of a left-most key from the second keyboard section. The
left-most key can then be laid to rest over the extended base portion.
The reserved space formed by the base of the first keyboard section
having dimensions of a key (e.g., a standard white key of a piano
keyboard) allows for consistent integration of another keyboard section
(having any number of keys) with the first keyboard section.
