The Spliteo is a Corne-like wireless split keyboard by Teodor Raykov (tedraykov/Embarrassed_Gas). It features 44-keys (3x6 matrix), including four thumb keys per half.

I’ve previously owned a Dactyl and a Glove80, but the biggest problem I had with them is how big and inconvenient were they to carry. This led me to design my custom portable Corne-inspired keyboard – Teodor.

Specs

• 44 keys (3x6+4)
• low-pro Choc V2 switches, hotswap
• Pro Micro Nrf52840 (or Nice!Nano V2.0)
• 3D printed case
