Have you played rhythm games and seen people use those cool keyboards with either just 4 keys, or 3 keys for games like osu!, osu!mania and Geometry Dash?
The Rhythm Pad aims to be complatible with many rhythm games, such as the ones listed above.
This should be compatible with VIA and should also be able to be used as a macropad.

Questions
How big is the Rhythmpad pcb PCB?
It measures 136 × 45 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Rhythmpad pcb use?
16 parts, built around the WS2812B. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Rhythmpad pcb KiCad files?
From the DovydasTEDS/rhythmPad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/rhythmpad_pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/libraries/OPL_Kicad_Library/Grove Vision AI V2 Library/Grove - Vision AI Module V2.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Rhythmpad pcb design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask DovydasTEDS before reusing the design.
