Title: 170% keyboard
Post by: mr. rampage on Thu, 05 September 2013, 09:31:02

Does anyone know of any project where someone used these switches (http://www.canadianjoysticks.com/categories/Buttons/Sanwa-Denshi-Co.-LTD/) to create a keyboard? Just curious. I'm looking to build a Divekick controller, but then started thinking about keyboards...

edit: also... wouldn't a divekick controller be a 2% keyboard?

Unless you made it big enough to stand on.
