Keyboards / Re: Let's discusscapacitive keyboards that are being crowdfunded，an amount of $89
« Last post by Mine on Tue, 01 July 2025, 08:12:25 »I noticed that this keyboard started crowdfunding yesterday, and here are some updated photos. Is anyone interested? It seems to offer other PCB layout options; I saw both 60% and 87% PCBs. The link says it can provide DIY CAD drawings. Is it difficult to DIY a capacitive keyboard?

Seriously what is up with making money, then deciding alcohol+++.
Long term, it seems virtually impossible to avoid alcohol-ism.
Also very weary of "tea", it's droogs-lite. The source of all conflict.

The design inspiration of this keyboard comes from "reeds" found in nature.
Introduction
We often see it by the lake or beside the river. Its branches stand upright upwards while its leaves hang downwards. When the wind blows, its posture is particularly beautiful. We believe this state is suitable to be displayed on the side of the keyboard.

Design
Due to the limitations of processing technology and production costs, we designed the sides of the keyboard as multiple small arcs, and protruded the lines at the junction points to present the elegance of reeds. At the same time, the rear end of the keyboard is designed with an open structure, creating a tall and upright posture like reeds.
The conventional way of handling keyboard weight distribution is to place the weight at the top, but this results in an unbalanced keyboard with a heavy top and a light bottom.
During the design phase, we aimed for visual harmony in the keyboard and to achieve a weight ratio of 50:50 for the upper and lower parts of the keyboard. Therefore, the weight was placed at the bottom of the keyboard's back.
By rotating the lines on the side, a "island" is formed at the bottom. Use rounded corners to smooth out the lines to make them resemble ripples of water.
We adopted a concealed screw design and used magnetic FPC, which made the keyboard more streamlined and reduced the assembly complexity.
Structure and Layout
Exploded View:
The fixation methods of the keyboard are GASKET and TOP.
Customize two types of silicone covers to enable the switching between GAS and TOP.
The FR4 diaphragms are isolated within the frame walls to ensure a smooth interior space for the keyboard, reduce sound rebound, and leave a gap to counteract the internal cavity sound.
