Description

NES Style Keyboard

A custom 75% keyboard based on the popular NES, supporting a rotary encoder for playback/volume control and a sliding potentiometer that can be mapped for anything (such as zoom in CAD/video editing apps. The keyboard also has addressable rgb LEDs on the bottom left side for sliding position as well as caps lock status (but can be mapped for other things). The keyboard also uses a 2 board setup, interconnected using a standard usb c cable from daughterboard to mainboard (future version will have the 3V3 LDO on the daughterboard, for simplicity and repairability). This project was commissioned by a friend of mine.

The enclosure is still in progress.

The project also includes the switchplate and the daughterboard on my git repo: https://github.com/AryA-65/NES-Style-Keyboard
