I built a Raspberry Pi powered keyboard that can identify your typing technique and shock you if you "pluck" (aka use one finger). Plus I added some blinding LEDs to prevent you from looking down. And added a touch-screen with some games to forcibly improve your typing speed. Oh and it uses a neural net because....buzz words! But also because it's really cool.

To top it all off, I'm sending this project to the one and only, MICHAEL REEEEEEEVES. He'll probably never actually use or show it, but hey it's the thought that counts right?

The project is fully open sourced and all files are here
