Keebin’ with Kristina: the One with the Batwing Typewriter
1 min read
Summary
In June last year, Electromagnetic Field held their annual hacker camp, with a special badge that comprised a Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller that could be extended with extra boards.
The EMF Tildagon badge has a default OS that does not recognise serial messages from keyboard, so Alex from the YouTube channel EastMakes created an application to read the messages and decode them.
An extension keyboard was also cooked up for the Tildagon.
A new keyboard has been developed by New-Concentrate6308, which takes the form of a cartridge that can provide the user with various add-ons, such as more keys, a screen, RGB or a knob.
Jamesvyn has created a stylish Battlestation in a Swiss home office, complete with a wide BOVI chassis and an attractive mouse.
Oliver Typewriters were a late 19th-century invention that enabled visible typing, with a distinctive three-row keyboard and “bat-wing” typebars, making it a pioneer of its time.
