New Project on the way…

I am on a new project these days. This one is under my final year. Its a

Glove Based Joystick Input Device (Wired and Wireless)

1. Progress? Well, I have salvaged 3 pairs of potentiometers from old Playstation 2 controllers.

2. Tested them with RC time technique to get Analog value into the Microcontroller.

3. Yesterday tested with ADC0832 2channe, 8-bit Analog to Digital Converter.

I had problems with the RC discharge time technique, Google the details if interested. too long and damn boring. Now the most important this is connecting it to a PC. I have thought of two methods. One, buying a ready module with USB-HID Protocol. Second, try to implement it myself in Basic Stamp2 (Which is pretty difficult).

I think the first method is my first choice and here is the module I am talking about.

Any updates will be posted soon.

Actually there might be a possibility of using Buetooth HID Protocol too :)
