Current Hardware Revision: 0.2.8
Eobard is an ortholinear 34 key split keyboard made for my personal needs. Inspired by the Ferris.
The columns are spaced out vertically so as to provide the most comfortable typing experience for my hand size. It is designed to be cheap to manufacture and simple to assemble. The single PCB is dual sided, only having to be flipped around for assembly of the other side.
