Published by Mposible, Zireael is an ergonomic wireless split keyboard with Kailh Choc switches and MINEW MS88SF2 BLE modules.

The keyboard, teased back in September, is based on the Dao Chok BLE. The locations of components on the board have been changed, space for the battery has been added, and the thumb cluster has also been changed.

Beside the Dao, inspiration for the keyboard was taken from Darryl's Corne-ish Zen and foostan's Cornelius.
