Mathpad is a keypad that makes it easy to type equations. It is intended for engineers, scientists, students, and professionals in STEM fields who regularly need to write equations or who use mathematical symbols in their day-to-day work.
With the Mathpad you can type 112 symbols from algebra, calculus, set theory, and logic, and the full greek alphabet. Mathpad plugs into your computer with a USB-C cable and works seamlessly alongside your regular keyboard.
The following equations are a few examples of what you can type directly with the Mathpad:
E = mc²
∛β ≫ ∯Ω(t)dt
(A⊂B) ∧ (A⊂C) ⇔ A ⊂ (B ∪ C)

| Plaintext | ✅ |
| LaTeX | ✅ |
| Microsoft Office equation editor | ✅ |
| LibreOffice equation editor | ❌ (in development) |
Mathpad works on all computers with Latin keyboard layouts. This includes nearly all western layouts, including US ANSI, UK, French AZERTY, DVORAK, and many more. For a full list of all supported keyboard layouts, see this list.
Official releases will be located in releases. The firmware is under development and therefore no official release exists yet.
If you wish to build the firmware binaries yourself, follow this guide from the official documentation.
