Buzzard

Buzzard Keyboard

Buzzard is a 40 keys ergonomic split keyboard. The layout is inspired by the Architeuthis dux with pinky, ring, index, and inner columns splayed at 15, 5, 0, -5, -5 degrees. However, it as two additional pinky keys and a modified thumb cluster.

Some Features:

  • Integrated TrackPoint reset circuit and two possible positions to mount a TrackPoint to the bottom of the PCB. Either between the two inner columns or between the index and middle finger columns
  • Mounting option for a linear actuator (HapticBuzz from pimoroni)
  • I2C interface for an OLED display
  • Wireless Ready (however, without TrackPoint / linear actuator support):
    • Battery switch / connector
    • Option to use a battery friendly Sharp memory display instead of an OLED display
  • Choc-spaced
