Vote in the final round of this category to win a MasterKeys S, a Knop Mini, and a MasterMouse from Cooler Master!

Round 2 rules:
Please vote for nominees for the best project or innovation in 2017.

You can cast a maximum of five votes.

This round is used to trim down the suggested nominees from round 1 - the five entries with the most votes will be promoted to official nominees and make it into the third and final round.

Suggested nominees:
  • Click bar on Kailh Box switches, best sound for a clicky mx switch to date. Kalih Click Bar is on another level of clicky.
  • PlastikSchnittstelle's SKBXX solid bent alu case made in Germany (60%+75%)
  • XMIT and his MX compatible hall effect boards having success on massdrop with R2
  • emdude's Xwhatsit/CS-Compatible IBM 3277 PCB, cool community project, completed, available, building on stuff that was already there ... and fun to read and follow :)
  • Orpheo's DIY numpad, sized to match 60%, awesome keyboard case, made of wood :)
  • QMX Clips: a truly efficient damping method for MX switches that's user friendly (no switch opening), works for both downstroke and upstroke, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
  • DMA's "CommonSense" project for bringing Capacitative keyboards controllers into the modern world. It's an open-source project that uses a $10 off-the-shelf devkit to provide ALL the circuitry needed to drive ANY Model F or Beamspring.
  • _red_ with his work in the pcb for the barn find IBM 3741 Data Station. He is doing a lot of hard work on it and it's making good progress!
  • The Level, a keyboard project nearing completion by Kevin (/u/thesircheddar on reddit). I applaud his determination, and his willingness to compromise on his dream to make the design have a greater appeal to those who expressed interest in his project, plus working hard to make it as affordable as possible through clever design choice (such as the open USB slot which reduces milling costs and re-alignment costs significantly).
  • Mattr567's Alps Plate Spring G80-1000
  • Shout out to /u/b-randen on Reddit for the bumpin' Seattle meetup last July!
The second round ends on Friday 1 December, 19:00 UTC. You can change your vote until the end of the round.

The full results will be published at the end of the awards.
