Description

I've always liked the ergonomics of the Xbox360 Chatpad and Controller and felt that it would make a perfect platform for a tiny handheld cyberdeck. So taking a USB to TTL FTDI converter, some solder, and some Python I was able to create a prototype of just such a device!

chatpad-python.py

A very basic and rather poorly written Python script to interpret the Chatpad data into "Keyboard" module commands. Needs a lot of work to be even close to 100%.
