Bento is a computer integrated into a keyboard, inspired by the Commodore 64 and cyberdeck creations.
It is designed for use with external displays, especially spatial displays like those by XREAL, eliminating unnecessary weight from built-in screens.
Bento is portable and focuses on essential functionality, with a system powered by a Steam Deck OLED mainboard, but it can support other single board computers (SBCs).
The project is open-sourced, inviting community contributions for improvements, such as support for different keyboards and SBC variants.
Bento emphasizes a novel approach to computing, especially with spatial display integration, positioning it as a 'spatial computer.'
