Title: 1% Keyboard
Post by: RougeR on Mon, 25 March 2013, 22:12:34
Yes i will be attempting to design the 1% keyboard and mouse, great for all you minimalists
This will be achieved using Morse code and a certain combination in order to swap to axis mouse function i.e ..........................................
. . for left . - . for right . - . - . for  up . - . -. -. for down

this will consist of a single cherry mx blue key, and likely a small...small small PCB or some sort of wiring to hook it straight in to a teensy or smaller.

the case can be your nostril should you choose. or i could just use a metal box.

similar project found here

imagine how if your entire keyboard could be CLICK CLACKS a
novelty **** caps,  pride of place for your toys and nail polish.

looks at your click clack now back to me!
