👋Welcome!
Start here if this is your first introduction to the Matchbox project!
Matchbox is a DIY STEM kit for beginners to assemble video game controllers from upcycled keyboards and various 3D-printed parts.
Problem:
Many STEM toys are too expensive, making them inaccessible for beginners.
We generate around 40 million tons of e-waste every year. A large percentage of which consists of obsolete keyboards.
Solution (?):
Matchbox is an affordable DIY controller kit designed for beginners. By assembling a controller from inexpensive upcycled parts, everyone gets to have a fun and accessible introduction to hardware engineering.
This project is still under development! Check out our devlogs for more fun details about what we're making now!
