Control Actuation Forces: keyboard_key
MIL-STD-1472F control actuation force and displacement requirements — min/max resistance (N) and displacement (mm or degrees) for every control type by hand condition (bare/gloved/heavy handwear/foot). Covers pushbuttons, foot switches, keyboards, toggle switches, legend switches, rocker switches, levers, isotonic joysticks, pedals, mouse buttons, and handwheels per Section 5.4 Figures 12-21 and Tables IX, X, XII.
