Prototypes
MX switches + touchpad + wide OLED + Choc mouse
buttons
Choc switches + big knob + tall OLED
Welcome to
the Sugar Glider Interest Check post. Its a pretty
experimental product packed with features so Ill try to keep
it straightforward. Starting in the middle with the most
prominent feature is the Cirque GlidePoint touchpad. The
position of the touchpad can be adjusted depending on where
you like your mouse buttons to be. If you dont want the
touchpad there, you can swap it out for a knob. Above this
section is where the OLED, GPIO expander, LEDs, and push
buttons live. You can use either a 128x32 or 128x64 OLED
here.
Now onto the mechanical part of this mechanical
keyboard. The PCB supports both Choc and MX switches. You
can do all Choc, all MX, half and half, alternating
Choc/MX keys (you monster), its all up to you. There
are also 2 spots for knobs under where your palms hover.
Currently,
the base kit is estimated to cost
70 USD and will include the following:
PCB, bottom plate
Blackpill and GPIO expander
-
OLED, LEDs, diodes, other through hole components
Knobs and encoders
Glidepoint touchpad and necessary components
-
Assembly hardware
The kit contents are not finalized and subject to change based on IC responses.
Changes we are strongly considering for the group buy: Plates for MX and Choc
Additional center column button layouts
-
Different placement of thumb clusters
TH KEUT HR -B KAEUPBL -F STOEUPB TPH -T TPAURT
In addition to the planned steno support, the Choc spacing has been designed and tested to work with stenography.
We will update everything everywhere not quite all at once with the Group Buy details once we have a more solid timeline.
A new prototype has been ordered with the following changes and additions:
Innermost alpha column has been moved down to conform to typical colstag layouts.
Palm encoders positions now support Choc and MX switches
Trial half plates to check fit
