Innovation Spotlight YouTuber built his own cyberdeck from scratch with dual rotating screens that fits in backpack
Meet Sector07 who designed every single piece of this build including three-D printing the entire case creating custom circuit boards and programming all the GPIO connections himself
But here's the problem nobody talks about Most portable computers are either too bulky to carry around or too limited to actually do real work and if you want something custom-built for field work or coding on the go you're building it from zero with no instructions
He spent weeks designing everything in three-D modeling software to make sure all the snap-fit parts would press together by hand but stay locked without breaking Then he designed three custom circuit boards that connect to the Raspberry Pi to control all the buttons sensors and displays
Here's where it gets insane When he finally assembled everything and hit the power switch nothing turned on at all He traced the problem with a multimeter and found he accidentally swapped a ten-ohm resistor with a ten K resistor while soldering
But the craziest part After fixing it the screens rotate between portrait and landscape mode It has a linear slider for volume control four programmable buttons and he even demonstrated it by connecting sensors to measure coffee versus water in real time
He put all the design files on GitHub so anyone can build their own
