This Laser-Cut Raspberry Pi Media Control System #piday #raspberrypi
With the muted colors and wood accents, this media controller looks like it came straight from the 70s. It is also installed right into the desk. Originally shared on Medium, picked up by Hackster.io:
The heart of the project, as Martin explains, is a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B single-board computer, wired directly to the eight Cherry-compatible mechanical keyboard switches without the need for passive components like diodes or resistors. Jumper cables were soldered to the switches, then slotted onto the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO header — one pin per switch, with a common connection to the 3.3V pin.
