The 42Azalia by AsherKeats is a gasket mounted 42-key unibody angled ortholinear keyboard driven by an RP2040. The case is tilted at 6 degrees.
42Azalia is my pet project and a test bed for automated PCB generator that I’ve been working on – AsherKeats .
The other interesting point is that this is split ready: the halves are driven by separate I2C IO expanders, and the controller board is actually in the brass weight.
