King's Assembly wireless split keyboard/mouse/joystick
Posted: 07 Apr 2014, 10:06
Anyone else following the King's Assembly Kickstarter project? I was surprised not to see it mentioned when I searched for it. It's almost 900% over it's initial fundraising goal, so I imagine there must be some funders on this forum.

It's a split keyboard where both halves can he used as mice, and each half also has a joystick. It's built for gaming primarily, but it has lots of interesting features like all keys being programmable, macros, backlit Cherry MX keys (you can choose the color), Maltron-style key wells, NKRO, etc.
What's really interesting about it is how the project has progressed. It's reach many stretch goals, and has figured out new goals based on customer feedback in the comments. The original design didn't have MX switches, but that changed after customers requested them. The ergonomics have changed, the programming capabilities changed, and they even just hit a goal to allow an external device like a tablet to be used as a HUD for the keyboard (not something I would probably use, but interesting nonetheless). Most importantly from my perspective, they hit a goal to add wireless to the keyboard.
The campaign ends in 4 days, so if you're interested take a look soon.
