What can you expect at TC Sessions: Mobility? Great question. Check out the agenda for the schedule of speakers, interviews, panel discussions, workshops and demos we have planned. More programming is slated for announcement in the next few weeks, but here’s a small taste of what’s to come:

  • Rethinking Urban Mobility: Motorcycle racing pioneer Erik Buell is back with a new company and vision. We’ll talk to Buell, now chairman of EV startup Fuell, about the tech behind the Flow electric motorcycle and the Fluid electric bicycle.
  • Bringing Ethics to Self-Driving Cars: When you hear the words ethics and autonomous vehicles, the age-old and often overused “trolley problem” thought experiment might spring to mind. We promise this isn’t about that. Instead, Voyage’s Oliver Cameron and Uber’s Clark Haynes will discuss ethical decision-making in autonomous vehicles and detail how robot cars are designed to prioritize some objects over others.
  • Building Mobility-First Cities: What does it look like to move around the city of the future? We’ll be talking with Avery Ash, head of autonomous mobility at INRIX, and Seleta Reynolds, GM of the Los Angeles Department of Transportation, to figure it out.

TC Sessions: Mobility 2019 takes place in San Jose, Calif. on July 10. Download the SocialLadder app, become a TechCrunch ambassador and don’t miss your chance to explore the future of mobility — for free.

A Mini USB Keyboard That Isn’t A Keyboard

A useful add-on for any computer is a plug-in macro keyboard, a little peripheral that adds those extra useful buttons to automate tasks. [ Sayantan Pal] has made one, a handy board with nine programmable keys and a USB connector, but the surprise is that at its heart lies only the ubiquitous ATmega328 that you might find in an Arduino Uno. This isn’t a USB HID keyboard, instead it uses a USB-to-serial chip and appears to the host computer as a serial device. The keys themselves are simple momentary action switches, perhaps a deluxe version could use key switches from the likes of Cherry or similar. The clever part of this build comes on the host computer, which runs some Python code using the PyAutoGui library. This allows control of the keyboard and mouse, and provides an “in” for the script to link serial and input devices. Full configurability is assured through the Python code, and while that might preclude a non-technical user from gaining its full benefit it’s fair to say that ...
