Project Duplex Carbasa

We get millions of requests every week about doing a Cardassian style app. And after a lengthy and constructive email conversation, I decided to actually get some work done and start working on it. The project is of yet unnamed (beyond it's codename Duplex Carbasa (Latin: "double canvas") and very basic with regards to functionality. However, it will give me an awesome chance to use up some of those lovely Cardassian computer sounds in my library.

Personally, I love the design of Cardassian monitors. So alien and completely original. However, throughout Star Trek, they've never been used for input. The only input that has been seen was accomplished either by voice or using those intriguing button controls that Mike Okuda and Doug Drexler affectionatley called 'vertebrae', 'horseshoe crab' and so on.

Until then, here's our Facebook gallery for the project that will be updated as the project begins to pick up speed.
