Custom Membrane Keyboard For A Flight Sim Avionics With Glossy Window

Creating the Membrane Layer

• Printing: Use a durable material to print the membrane layer with the desired graphics and labels.
• Layering: Typically, the membrane consists of three layers: top (with printed keys), middle (conductive traces), and bottom (adhesive).

Components Needed

• Membrane Switches: These are the key components that register a key press. You can choose different designs based on your preferences.
• Circuit Board: A PCB or a breadboard to connect the switches.
• Microcontroller: Such as an Arduino or a similar device to process key inputs.
• Enclosure: A custom case to house the keyboard.
• Connectors/Cables: For connecting to a computer (USB, etc.).
• Adhesive Layer: To secure the membrane layer to the base.

Designing the Layout

• Key Layout: Decide on the arrangement of keys (QWERTY, Dvorak, etc.).
• Labels: Choose how you want the keys to be labeled (printed or stickers).

Programming

• Develop Firmware: Write the code for the microcontroller to interpret key presses. This may involve using libraries specific to your microcontroller.
• Testing: Ensure that each key registers correctly and troubleshoot any issues.

Assembly

• Mount the Switches: Place the membrane switches onto the circuit board.
• Connect the Microcontroller: Wire the switches to the microcontroller based on the layout.
• Secure the Layers: Attach the membrane layer to the circuit board ensuring proper alignment.

Final Touches

• Enclosure: Place the assembled components into the custom enclosure.
• Connecting to a Computer: Test the keyboard by connecting it to a computer to ensure functionality.
