Hi! A friend and I plan to start a chorded keyboard. From all the chorded keyboards we saw, the chordite seems to be the most practical and best planned. I...
Hi Shmuel, As it says in the group description, "... The best thing to do is download the version 2.2 kit at chordite.com and then ignore the parts about the...
Thanks John. This information really helps me on starting. I'll first try with the SS-01GL13-F switches, specially because I don't know other options :) I'll...
I found this cited by Slashdot: a do-it-yourself data glove <http://www.cemetech.net/projects/item.php?id=16> , i.e., a glove with multiple electrical...
It's a dense plastic material rather than cork, eh? Do you use it held up or hanging loosely? If held up, perhaps lightening holes would reduce weight? ... --...
Yes, Tony, it is not real cork. With 6.7e9 people covering the earth there is apparently not enough real cork for each and every bottle of cheap wine. I...
I finally finished playing around with my emachineshopped prototype parts and wired a unit. I've been using it for more than a week. I have had a little...
I just now put into the files section of this group Richard Donkin's tar ball of his PS/2 Chordite implementation in C for PIC processors. He has released it...
Just for fun I put a crude poll box on chordite.com asking what visitors would pay for a well manufactured chordite-style device. Given a logarithmic set of...
You should do another poll asking how many currently own a handheld computer.. etc.. full featured handhelds are dropping in price.. When I got my N800 for...
Interesting question. I googled on things like hand held and market and did not stumble onto anything useful in 5 or so minutes. It looked to me like point of...
Google's having an idea contest http://www.project10tothe100.com/how_it_works.html I think they're hoping for big things like cancer cures and cold fusion that...
... Hello John, I am having some trouble getting my chordite board working. I am using the attiny2313 with the 4mhz resonator as depicted in your keyboard_2.2...
Yahoo groups have this annoying tendency to sometimes eat notes --- You post one and it doesn't appear for more than 24 hours. So you think darn, that didn't...
Let no one forget Ryan Sand's wearable project site http://www.bitbiters.net/CHS/wpc/wpc.php which of course includes a Chordite made with clear lexan switch...
After 2 1/2 months and 135 votes the poll has evolved to this: bucks....votes....cumulative percentage ... $50......20.......100% $100.....70........85% ...
I've adjusted well enough to the 16gf keys but I still definitely prefer the 30gf. Or maybe even stiffer. I like to rest my fingers on the keys without typing...
... Interesting I guess hall effect switches would then be immune since there's no actual contact being broken. -- Best Regards. Please keep in touch. This is...
It has been brought to my attention that there exists the Mobile World Congress [1] at which the 2009 Mobile Innovation Global Award [2] was won by Cootek [3]...
Sandy, get at least 8 switches, 10 will give you 2 spares in case you drop the unit and rip off a lever. I am now recommending 30 to 50 gf switches, 16 is too...
