My very own custom wireless ergonomic split keyboard.
Splitwave is a 44 key column-staggered split keyboard that uses Choc switches. Is is powered by SuperMini nRF52840 micro-controller. It is created during the Highway event of Hackclub. The whole process of making it is journaled here.
One day my work keyboard stopped working and I always dreamed of having those fancy split keyboards but I was never lucky to have one at that same period of time. HackClub announced Highway event, and I hopped into it!! The timing couldn't have been any more perfect!!!
Keys Layout of SplitWave
SplitWave has a reversible PCB(which means you can order one PCB in stack and use that for both left and right). The KiCAD PCB file is located here.
