I'm finally closing in to a similar completed state as the very first Tetrinsic concept, hardware-wise. I thought it would be a good idea to commemorate the relatively radical redesign of Tetrinsic from a dual path, single LCD solution to a dual LCD, single path one by finding a new background (see below).

 Unfortunately for me, it seems that this entire process has taken 3 hours -- 2 for choosing / editing an image and 1 for setting up the render. Part of the 1hr setting up the render was to do with setting up slightly more accurate textures of the plates, such as the white soldermask or rough milled textures of the edges.

It's also interesting to know that I'm now at save v359. Only the #SecSavr Skyrise [gd0092] has more saves (v385) and that's an entire FDM printer. I guess it's to be expected, since digital input devices are used by billions and so all the low-hanging fruit of faster input methods have likely all been found already.

Tetrinsic Taic looks really cool and every past version of myself in the last 15 or so years (whenever the Horizon Fuel Cell H2Go RC Car came out) would be happy to know that a futuristic input device may very well be powered by renewable energy.
