Nikola Secerovski (aka secersh) shared his etzee B11, a modular ortholinear keyboard with many PCB variants: split or monoblock, 5 or 6 columns, MX/Choc/KS-33 switch support.

Actually, etzee will be an "open modular input-device ecosystem", combining keyboards, utility modules, magnetic pogo-pin connectors, local displays, haptics, and firmware that can discover and communicate across connected modules – with modules still work in progress.

Features

  • 36-42 keys, ortho split or monoblock
  • MX, Choc, KS-33 variants, hot-swappable
  • integrated dot-matrix display on switch plate
  • magnetic pogo-pin module connectors
  • per-key RGB (south-facing)
