Introducing
Paw
A project by dingusxmcgee and KnoblesseOblige
Paw
is an arrow cluster macropad, aimed at expanding any desk
setup with increased functionality, sleek design and
convenience.
With onboard Bluetooth, brass accents and
a sandblasted polycarbonate case, Paw will be a standout
piece no matter where you use it.
Let’s skip right to
some renders prototype photos
I brought this idea to KnoblesseOblige (Taylor) back
in May, and what started as a meme, grew into reality. After
2 rounds of prototyping, many hours optimizing and
brainstorming, we are ready to bring our project to the
masses. The goal was to fill the gap left by moving to
smaller and smaller boards: missing arrow keys. With Paw,
you can bring your arrow keys anywhere and effortlessly
expand the possibilities of big and small boards alike.

Note: Due to licensing conflicts, Paw will not ship, nor
be compatible with, main QMK. It will ship with ZMK, and
Bluetooth-first firmware that has more permissive
licensing and better battery life optimizations. A QMK
fork will be available to self-compile if you would like
to pursue that method. Please note that ZMK will not have
feature parity with QMK, though it is being actively
developed and maintained. You can find more information

150mah battery (approximate usage rates: 30 days of
active use and 60 days standby)
Note: values are approximate and subject to change based
on usage and firmware used
