What's Changed?

Test Bench 1.3.1 is a minor update with two small changes.

Single KEY LAtency

PCB (Estimated): The estimation of the keyboard's press latency, excluding any switch pre-travel.

This is done by taking all the data from our 101 keyboard switches and calculating the best linear regression for linear, tactile, and clicky switches. We then use the keyboard keystroke data to interpolate its switch latency. Finally, we subtract the interpolated switch latency from the full keyboard latency to obtain the estimated PCB latency.
