Could you build this?
No This is a physical hardware engineering project combining ergonomic keyboard PCB design, mechanical enclosure fabrication, and integrating an optical mouse sensor with embedded firmware. It requires physical EE, CAD, and embedded C firmware development that cannot be vibe-coded into existence.
What it would actually take: A builder must design a custom PCB in KiCad incorporating a microcontroller (like RP2040 or ATmega32U4) and an optical tracking sensor module (like PMW3360/PMW3389). They must write or configure embedded firmware using QMK or ZMK to handle both matrix scanning and SPI sensor communication, while also 3D modeling and prototyping ergonomic cases using CAD and CNC/3D printing. Physical EE laboratory equipment, PCB assembly, and embedded hardware debugging are required.
