Calculator 5 and Calculator 5 V2 - Works in Process!

A study of custom from the ground up python RPN calculators in landscape or portrait. Just what the world has been yearning for but doesn’t know it yet.

Features:

  • Pi Pico 2350 based keyboard for full customization. Omron tactile keys for that rock solid HP feeling with extra clicky sprinkled in.

  • Keyboard can use KMK, ZMK, or QMK firmware, dealer’s choice. Long term this would be KMK on Zephyr OS or straight ZMK out of the box

  • Landscape format as a nod the old HP 12, 15, and 16s, just with a much larger and 5” diagonal display (1280x720 MIPI-DSI). Portrait has a 4” square display (720x720 MIPI-DSI)

  • ESP32-P4 mainboard with ZephyrOS and MicroPython/CircuitPython

  • ESP32-C6 integrated with P4 for WiFi and BLE

  • Possible extras include ESP32-H2 for Zigbee and thread, LoRA, and GPS for signal hacking, in addition to a 9-axis IMU and environmental sensors

  • RPN calculator plus engineering calculation macros and whatever your Python heart desires
