He describes the prototype he made from scratch, including CAD in Onshape, PCB design in KiCad, and hand soldering, with fully hot-swappable keys and two rotary encoders for audio mute and volume control. He plans to make Lilac V1 fully Bluetooth with a built-in battery and wireless charging, and ultimately develop it into a sellable open market product. He also shares earlier projects including a 5-inch FPV drone, a paintball turret, and other open source builds, and notes he spent about 70 hours on Lilac V1.
