Play along - create a PinePhone keyboard
#23
Not exactly a keyboard but I think a second screen with physical triggers could be interesting. Something like the LG dual-screen case.

The screen is already there and can be re-used. It would require some controller to pass power, data and touch to USB-C.

Maybe the triggers could be wired separately to the pogo pins? Doesn't matter what type - capacitive, analog or plain old buttons depending on tolerances and available space.

Such an approach can spin in so many different directions. For an initial attempt it could be just the display controller to USB-C and then expand to the case shell itself.

Anyone else thinking this could be fun?

Device: Pinebook Pro 128GB No:246 / MainOS: Manjaro ARM
