Tichifunga kuti tinopedza nguva yakawanda sei tiri pakiyibhodhi yedu (vazhinji vedu zvakadaro), kunyangwe shanduko diki diki dzemagadzirirwo dzinogona kuita mutsauko mukuru mukushanda kwatinoita nemidziyo yedu yedhijitari - yakanaka kana yakaipa. Apple inonzwisisa izvi uye yakatounza matekinoroji avo echizvino-zvino ekiyibhodhi pamberi uye pakati pedhizaini yavo yeMacbook yazvino. Asi kune avo vanoda kutonga kwakazara kwekiyibhodhi yavo, Kickstarter campaign itsva inogona kupa mhinduro yeimwe yemagadzirirwo ekiyibhodhi akanakisa atati taona.

Mugumisiro wemakore anopfuura matatu ekugadzirwa, Model 01 kubva kukambani yekutanga yeBay Area Keyboardio inotsanangurwa nekambani se "keyboard yemhando yekare kune vanonyora zvakanyanya".

Kutanga neyakavharika yakavharirwa iyo "yakagadzirirwa maoko emunhu" uye yakanyungudutswa kubva kumabhuroko maviri emepu yakasimba, iyo Model 01 inosiya iyo iri kuwedzera yakajairika makiyi makiyi achifarira tactile mechaniki kiyi makiyi akafanana neanowanikwa paApple II yekutanga. Sezvineiwo, imwe neimwe ye64 makiyi ega ega aive akajairwa-akavezwa kuti ape nyoro gwara uye kuzorora kwemunwe wega wega.

"Zvakatora makore maviri nehafu, kureba kupfuura zvataifunga," inodaro murume nemukadzi wake Keyboardio timu papeji yavo yeKickstarter.

“Taifanira kudzidza 3D modelling, magetsi okugadzira zvinhu, soldering, lasercutting, 3D printing, uye CNC milling. Takavaka akawanda eprototypes uye tikaaisa pamberi pemazana evanhu vanofarira vanonyora zvakawandisa, kusanganisira vanogadzira zvirongwa, vatori venhau, mablogiki, vanyori, nevatambi, kungotaura vashoma. Vanhu vanoramba vachitiudza kuti ‘tinyarare uye titore mari yangu,’ asi tatora nguva yedu nokuti taida chaizvo kugadzirisa izvi.”

Kana kubudirira kwekutanga kweKickstarter campaign yavo kuchiratidza kuti vane chimwe chinhu chakanaka. Parizvino, campaign iyi iri pamusoro pemadhora zviuru mazana matatu nemakumi mana nemana ($344,000) (nechinangwa chepakutanga chemadhora zviuru zana nemakumi maviri) uye kwasara mavhiki matatu kuti Model 01 itange kugadzirwa.

Takapedza inenge mwedzi misere tichitenda kuti taive mavhiki mashanu kubva kuKickstarter.

Munguva pfupi yapfuura takawana mukana wekutaura nemuvambi weKeyboardio uye injiniya mukuru wekugadzira Jesse Vincent zvakawanda nezvenhoroondo yake (isina chekuita nekugadzira hardware), kuti pfungwa yekhibhodi yakatouya sei, kuti akaita sei nezvekugadzira Model 01 nezvimwe.

Hey Jesse! Unogona here kutiudza zvishoma nezvemabviro ako?

Ini ndiri munhu wesoftware. Mushure mechinguva chidiki paMicrosoft uye dotcom panguva yekutanga internet boom, ndakatanga kambani kutengesa rutsigiro uye tsika yekuvandudza yeChikumbiro Tracker, yakavhurika sosi nyaya yekutevera system yandakanyora. Pamberi peKeyboardio, ini ndakanyora zvakare ine mukurumbira email mutengi weApple anonzi K-9 Mail uye ndakapedza makore akati wandei semutungamiri wepurojekiti yePerl programming language.

Pfungwa yekeyboard yakauya sei?

Ndave nemaoko akaipa uye nenyaya dzeRSI kubva kukoreji uye ndanga ndangopfuura neimwe nzira yekhibhodi kunze uko. Makore mashoma apfuura, yekutanga yandanga ndichishanda pairi yakakundikana uye ndakafunga kutora imwe nguva kuti ndiongorore pfungwa itsva. Pane imwe nguva, ndisingazivi chinhu pamusoro pekugadzira hardware, ndakasarudza kuedza kuzvivakira keyboard. Ndakaona kuti zvinganditorera mwedzi ndobva ndadzokera kusoftware.

Wakatanga sei dhizaini uye yakasanganisirei?

Ndakatanga nokuverenga zvakawanda. Ndisati ndatanga pane yangu yekutanga prototype, ndakaverenga zviri nyore pamusoro pezana mapepa ezvidzidzo nezve dhizaini yekhibhodi uye ndakapfuura nemazana enhoroondo kiibhodhi patent. Pakutanga, maprototypes angu aive mapundu mahombe evhu rekuenzanisira aine makiyi akanamira mazviri. Kubva ipapo, ndakatanga kugadzira makiyibhodhi angu ekutanga ekushanda muOmniGraffle, a Mac vector dhizaini chirongwa chinonyatsokodzera kudhirowa Org-chati pane kugadzira Hardware. Ndakashandisa maPDF akagadzirwa kubva kuOmniGraffle kune lasercut mashiti eacrylic, ayo, kana akaturikidzwa, akavaka inonzwisisika fakisi yekhibhodi inogona kushandiswa. Ndakatamba ne 100D printing, asi payakabatira printa yedu ye3D, yakabva yarasika.

Semumwe munhu ane idiki CAD uye hardware dhizaini ruzivo, ndezvipi zvinhu zvakaita kuti usarudze kushandisa Fusion 360 kugadzira yako maCAD modhi?

Pamberi pechirongwa ichi, handina kumbobvira ndashandisa CAD package kweanopfuura maminetsi mashoma. Pakutanga mukuvandudzwa, ndakaedza kushandisa Inventor, Solidworks, uye Rhino, asi hapana kana imwe yadzo yakanyatsondiitira zvakanaka. Fusion 360 yaive yekutanga pasuru yakarova inotapira nzvimbo yesimba uye nyore kushandisa. Semushandisi weMac, chokwadi chekuti ini handidi muchina wakasiyana weWindows kuti uite basa rave richibatsira zvakanyanya. Autodesk, zvakare, zvave zvakanaka kushanda nazvo-ehe, vakatipa marezinesi emahara eFusion 360 sechikamu chebvumirano yavo yekutanga, asi chakanyanya kundishamisa yanga iriyero yerutsigiro yatakawana kubva kwavari. Pane imwe nguva, ndakarova bug inoputsika muna 360. Icho hachizi chinhu chikuru, asi fungidzira kushamisika kwangu pandakawana email kubva kumugadziri mangwanani akatevera uyo akandifambisa kuburikidza nekubudisazve nyaya uye akashuma maawa anenge gumi nemaviri gare gare kuti akanga agadzirisa. the bug yesvondo rinotevera rekuburitsa kuburitswa. Ini handiwanzo kuwana rutsigiro rwakanaka kune zvigadzirwa zvandinobhadhara nemhino.

Ndezvipi zvimwe zvawaifarira zveFusion 360 paunenge uchigadzira chigadzirwa?

Zvishandiso zvekubatana zvave kuponesa hupenyu sezvo ndanga ndichishanda nevarairidzi nemakondirakiti. Kuziva kuti munhu wese anokwanisa kurarama, shanduro dzemazuva ano dzemhando dzangu dzakandibatsira kuti ndidzivise marudzi ese ekupenga-skew nyaya.

Iyo CAM injini, zvakare, yanga yakanaka chaizvo kushanda nayo. Tine ShopBot mugaraji uye kuva neCAM chaiyo system inogadzira yedu G-Code ndeye… zvakanaka, iko kunakidzwa kwakawanda.

Zvinotora nguva yakareba kupfuura yaunotarisira kuti ugadzirise. Iko kuswedera kune yekupedzisira chigadzirwa iwe unogona kugadzira yako prototype, zviri nani.

Nekudzokorodza kwako kwekupedzisira muruoko, ndepapi pawaiziva kuti wanga wagadzirira kutanga Kickstarter mushandirapamwe?

Takapedza inenge mwedzi misere tichitenda kuti taive mavhiki mashanu kubva kuKickstarter. Zvinhu zviviri zvakatora nguva yakareba kupfuura zvaitarisirwa kwaive kugadzirira prototypes uye mumaoko evaongorori vebeta vataivimba kutipa mhinduro yechokwadi uye kuisa pamwechete vhidhiyo inomanikidza. Chokwadi ngachitaurirwe, ini ndakanga ndisina chokwadi chekuti takanga takagadzirira kutanga paKickstarter patakaita.

Nderipi rairo raungapa kune mumwe munhu akaita sewe angave ari kufunga kuvhura ega chigadzirwa zano rekugadzira paKickstarter?

Zvinotora nguva yakareba kupfuura yaunotarisira kuti ugadzirise. Iko kuswedera kune yekupedzisira chigadzirwa iwe unogona kugadzira yako prototype, zviri nani.

Iva akatendeseka uye pachokwadi nevatsigiri vako. Teerera kune zvavanenge vachikumbira-haufanire (uye haufanirwe) kuita zvese zvavanokumbira, asi unozodzidza zvakawanda nekutaura navo nezvezvavanoda uye nei.

Chekupedzisira, uye zvakanyanya kukosha, ndekupi kwatingawane yakanakisa donut muBay Area uye imhandoi yedonut?

Isu tiri munguva pfupi yapfuura kubva kuEast coast uye hatisati tawana zvinoyevedza donut zvawanikwa, asi tanga tichishanda zvine hungwaru kuburikidza nesarudzo dzemuno. Kusvika pari zvino, zvatinoda zviri muOakland-Runako zvinogadzira bhegi reMontreal-style uye Authentic Bagel Company iri muJack London Square inoita bhegi reNew York.

Kune avo vanoda kutenga Model 01 yavo, mutengo weyuniti unotangira pamadhora mazana maviri nemakumi mapfumbamwe nemapfumbamwe ($299) uye zuva rekutumira rinofungidzirwa kuti richatanga muna Kubvumbi 2016 paKickstarter.
