FK2 Demo Video With Custom PCB

I've been able to work on this project in short bursts, and have finally been able to test the new PCB.  Currently I've got it set up to run through a series of automated tests to prove that it can execute all the required functions.

The following keystrokes are implemented:

UP
DOWN
LEFT (page turn)
RIGHT (page turn)
SELECT
HOME

With these six commands, the user can select books, turn pages, and return to the main menu to select another book.

Here's a short video where you can see it run:


From here, all that remains is attaching some simple cables to each button so it can be easily plugged into the appropriate jack on the board, then attaching everything to the new wooden stand I created a couple weeks ago.

We're getting there!
