stickeyboard's Introduction

stickeyboard

An accessible qmk "keyboard" that uses two joysticks. (WIP)

Parts


  • 2 SANWA JLF-TP-8YT Original Joystick White - for Arcade Jamma Game 4 & 8 Way Adjustable
  • 2 SANWA GT-Y Octagonal Restrictor gate for JLF Joysticks
  • SparkFun Qwiic Pro Micro - USB-C (ATmega32U4)
  • (optional) Hikig 5 Pcs/Lot 5Pin Cable for SANWA Joystick
  • MCIGICM 10pcs Male Header Pin, 40 Pin Header Strip (2.54 mm) for Arduino Connector, though any male header pins will do
  • Breadboard (used to solder the header pins to the Qwiic Pro Micro)
  • Soldering iron (I use a cheap TS100 iron); Lead-Free Solder; Solder Wick (for removing excess);
  • Chip Quik CQ4LF Liquid Flux No-Clean in 10ml (0.34oz) Pen w/tip

Motivations

  • To provide a platform for people with fine motor control issues to be able to use a computer.
  • It should be capable of supporting quick movements that may have "double input" as is common with cerebral palsy
  • It should be flexible enough in implementation to support a variety of disabilities
    • Parkinsons
    • Cerebral Palsy
    • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
    • RSI
  • Usecases for abled people as well either through a temporary injury, or in a unique context such as in VR environments
  • It should be affordable for all, while the components i've chosen are durable and high quality it should support affordable or home made components with the same layout.

stickeyboard's Issues

QMK Firmware

Obviously this should use QMK Firmware, it's reliable and customizable. It should also provide a way to customize the layout without writing software using only the stickeyboard.

presoldered Qwiic Pro Micro

If I could get a presoldered Qwiic Pro Micro, it would make production a lot easier (I'm bad at soldering) .

Case design

A design of a case that isn't labor intensive, is sturdy, and relatively affordable.

Joystick layout

What should the layout be for the keyboard? Obviously we should support the current industry standard but after that should we experiment with alternative layouts?
