So, he decided to build his own which he called the Commute Deck. The main chassis is made from plywood and he created his own, custom, keyboard for the purpose (which uses a Teensy to read the key matrix) which was split in half on either side of a screen. The Raspberry Pi is the heart of the machine. He&#8217;s ended up with something which is part-laptop and part-cyberpunk device, although I&#8217;m not sure how great it will be for the restricted width of a plane seat! <a href=\"http:\/\/makezine.com\/2017\/06\/15\/commute-deck-keyboard-device\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more over at Make<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerry Scharfglass was finding typical portable computers difficult to work with in confined spaces, such as on a plane or on a train.
