That keyboard looks very similar to various "mini keyboards" on Amazon. I searched for "pc remote keyboard trackpad" and found a couple that are pretty close.

I have had a couple. Don't expect to type out a novel on it. Between the tiny layout, the straight rows, and the mushy matrix, they are barely good enough for searching for movie titles on Kodi. I'd rather use a phone touchscreen keyboard.

I think it's pretty hard to make that sort of call from a single photograph, of pre-release hardware. You've used the literal cheapest common denominator of keyboards that look like this, something you could probably get on aliexpress for a dollar that's been rebranded. Besides that, I'm talking about using either one of two open microcontrollers that would make the device and it's firmware hackable, which is still much cooler than what you probably got from Amazon.
