A while back I saw a video of a guy (in Australia) who had installed electronics in his car and written an iPad app or similar to let him control the car remotely.

Same kinda thing, plus I guess he could add coloured lights too (if he hadn't already - this was a few years ago).

I feel like something like this would take up a lot of space. Cool concept tho

Which should be identically doable with matias switches. I wonder if they decided to that after seeing his transparent switches or what.

I know this isn't about RGB LEDs specifically and rather being able to control them from a remote source, but originally D-SQUAD was working on an RGB cherry board.

Then Cherry themselves announced they'd be doing one in partnership with Corsair.

Then the thread above me.

And meanwhile, the Koreans have already done it:

Man, those Koreans have done just about everything... Except the most important thing, which is of course creating a modern capacitive buckling spring revival board.

That's pretty cool. Looks like you're able to select individual keys and clusters for different colors. Is there a video of the actual software they are using to control the leds, or is it all done through dips?

Not sure, I forget where I even found the video.
