Custom Keyboard

[Haeking]

Im designing an all white compact keyboard with cherry mx silvers, and was wondering about input on what gamers would like in a keyboard, Im getting a custom pcb for type c and a usb port on the side. 
I was wondering what other personal features people would love to see in a keyboard weither it be a smaller space bar, etc.
And also where I could purchase some highly rated rgb to implement into the pcb

For me it would be shorter siftt, and second key for voice chat, just split shift to two and add second key on the left

 

Question: Are you desgining PCB urself?

Possibly, it would make a lot of keyboard fanatics happy if I do so, depends I'll be sending out a few prototypes at some point to get a review on the keyboard

Maybe split the spacebar into three keys, one in the middle for push to talk. Remove right alt, control, and menu for designated macros or something.

That sounds absolutely splendid

Maybe have a alt-tab lock like the windows button lock.

What kind of microcontroler you plan to use?

That's the tough part I was looking to try out the BeagleBone Black, the ATMEGA328P-AU, or the Arduino Uno R3 USB Microcontroller
Hard to find the best one to fit the job

A design where the case mounts to the top plate rather than the PBC.

 

Also more evenly distributed case mounts to achieve a more consistent typing feel from key to key.

do you have a sketch for what it will look like yet? Also, do you intend on selling it?
