Knob-board

The Knob-board is a standalone, wireless device designed to enhance user interaction with smart home systems and various applications. Inspired by the Everest Max keyboard, it features a mechanical knob that utilizes a unique sliding mechanism, allowing users to access up to 10 different input functions. The knob operates through a magnetic ring and Hall sensors, providing feedback similar to a touchscreen. It can function as an analog input for gaming or be configured to act as eight distinct keys, with customizable key bindings available through the Azilian OS. Additionally, the Knob-board supports MIDI and connects to smart home platforms via a dongle, facilitating the creation of virtual switches in systems like HomeKit. The product is currently in preparation for mass production and certification.
