I'm working on this project mainly motivated by the contest, and I'm starting from scratch. I had the idea of working in something like this some time ago to learn more embedded linux, and could not get started, so the contest is nice motivation and great timing. I also want to use this as an excuse to learn more embedded linux.

I still have to research more about cyberdecks, but the main idea seems to be a futuristic portable computer with connectivity and used for hacking on the go. Aesthetics are important here, it has to look cyberpunk!

About my ideas for my build:

I'm sure of:

• It will run Linux, so I can experiment with yocto / embedded linux.
• I want it to be more like a flipper, I mean, protocols and tools. Not so much a weird laptop.
• I want it to be kinda wearable, so that I can use it comfortable resting on my forearm if needed.

I'm not sure of

• The components I will use, like keyboard and screen. Size is really important, so it can be wearable.

At the moment I'm looking for inspiration (cyberdecks in reality and media) and browsing what hardware I can use.
