PROJECT: Development of a Glove based joystick.
Comments(9) Hello after a very long time. There is no particular reason I am late, but mostly laziness… usual.
Anyway, the project idea I had posted earlier is finished. Its a college project so bear with the technicality. Its a joystick in a glove form, has no base to keep it on a table, and you wear it, its a glove. Its official title is: “Design and Development of a Glove Based Joystick Input Device”. Actually, this version I made can only control 2 servo motors and is not for a PC. Future designs will be able to connect to your USB.
Here are a few images:
The Device:
The joysticks are a single pair of Analog controllers salvaged from the Playstation2. The microcontroller is Basic Stamp 2 from Parallax. This is the first version of a glove based device. The goal was to make this a Joystick that can be connected to a computer, however this model does not, its just a demo of the hardware and connects to 2 servomotors to show the flexibility of the joystick and the ADC. The remaining details can be found in the project report.
Future Ideas:
1. I can either take a commercial USB joystick and strip it, connect the inputs to my device and have a fully functional glove based joystick.
2. The more difficult method is to program a PIC32 with USB capabilities. USB- HID (Human Interface Device) protocol can be used.
Here is a ppt describing the protect:

Awesome! I’m about to purchase a Joystick.. maybe I can get your Glove Joystick instead? =P
please tell me any website having projects explanation ( like yours )and list of projects for computer science engineering students
