This is a keyboard shell for a six-key chord keyboard, based on the Microwriter and Quinkey designs from the 80's. These keyboards allow one-handed touch-typing and are great for use by people with brittle bones or unreliable hand control as the fingers stay in one position and only press down with the finger pads for all characters. The hand rests on the palm swell. A typing tutor program can be found at https://github.com/VikOlliver/Quirkey
The firmware runs on a couple of microcontrollers:
An ATmega32U-equipped Arduino clone available from https://github.com/VikOlliver/Microwriter.
A Raspberry Pi Pico-compatible with USB HID capability, code in CircuitPython available from https://github.com/VikOlliver/Quirkey.
The only other electronic components are a USB lead and 6 standard lever microswitches.
The microswitches used were ZHAOYAO lever microswitches measuring 12.8x5.8mm and had a 6.5mm high body, a common size used for 3D printers. 10 pack on DX here: https://www.d
