Project Goal

To make my dad a really cool and useful macropad for work (Christmas Present)

Untitled

Summary

Mac-pad is a USB-C macro keypad with a rotary encoder and feedback light indicators for zoom (mute, camera on/off). My dad works from home a lot of the time and I see him fuzt around with a lot of onscreen buttons and he does a lot of repetitive actions. The goal behind this is to optimize his workflow, reduce friction and frustration and I needed an excuse to learn how to CNC.

Design

The main design and work will be based off the Salim Benbouziyane project I found online.

I plan on altering the design a bit to fit my father’s needs better and I want to make an anodized aluminium shell as it would fit in better with aesthetics he has at his desk.

Stakeholder meetings are ongoing and the client is still working out their needs ;p

Project is still on going, more updates to come as it progresses.

Thanks!
