The Intellivision Hand Controller is one of the most reviled controllers in the world of video games. It’s almost as if it was designed by a group of parents who were concerned that their children spent too much time playing games, so they made a controller that would cause physical pain after roughly 30 minutes of play. There’s a sliding disc at the bottom, two buttons on each side, and a big number pad (With overlay support) in the middle. The problem is, I’ve never actually found a way to hold this controller that makes any sense. There’s nowhere to hold it so that you can use the disc comfortably. The buttons are rubbery and mushy and you never really know when you’ve pressed them, and they force you to hold the controller in an awkward way. For those who’ve never experienced what it’s like to use an Intellivision controller, imagine trying to use an oversized iPhone as a game controller, with the volume buttons as your main action buttons and the “Home” button as your control pad. And to top it off, the Intellivision controller is hardwired into the system, so you can’t get a third party controller that doesn’t suck. The Intellivision inspired a number of other controllers, including the Atari 5200 and the ColecoVision, but those controllers solved the problem by moving the disc to the top of the controller and replacing it with a joystick that could be gripped, making them far easier to use.
Don’t get me wrong, the Intellivision is an undisputed classic system, but if you want to play any of the games for it, you’re far better off picking up the latest Intellivision Lives! compilation and playing it on something like XBox Live Arcade or the DS. That way you won’t need wrist surgery next month.

A South London pest controller, worried by the number of foxes visiting his garden, dressed a dead piglet in a baby-grow, put it in a buggy and played the sound of a baby crying next to it. this fox grabbed it and ran off.

The Maplins Robotarm kit came USB-only for computer control. The grandchildren weren't quite ready for that, so I built this simple panel using an old magnet/reedswitch keypad from the spares bin. Each key on the pad enables a double pole relay to supply the required polarity for motor direction. The centre-off slider switch selects between onboard batteries or 5 volt wallwart adaptor as power source. The on/off keys switch two blue bright flashing LEDs (just for added bling!) and the jaws' working light.
Customized M-Audio (ex.Evolution) UC-33e midi controller.
Added LEDs of different colours. Faster finding the right knob makes working with the unit & performing easier.
Possible to change LED brightness.
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory developed the Smart Charger Controller (pictured) to manage peak demands in the electric grid as more electric vehicles hit the road. The Controller tells the car's battery when to start and stop re-charging based upon existing stress in the grid. The Controller's interface screen allows users to understand what the Controller is doing at any particular time during the charging cycle.

dd looking and often ridiculed, the Nintendo 64 controller is the only controller I know of that requires three hands to use. Players were required to undergo seven hours of surgery to attach a third arm, generally taken from Chinese prison camp inmates (Although later taken from chimpanzees after several tragic incidents where the transplanted arm retained some of the violent tendencies of its original owner). Unwillingness to submit to body modification is often credited as the primary reason for Nintendo’s lack of commercial success against the Sony Playstation, although many players reported many non-game related benefits to their newly installed third arms.
Actually, I like the N64 controller. It’s comfortable, and as long as you pretty much ignore the mostly useless D-Pad and L button, there’s nothing really wrong with it.

We built a giant LED board, about 6.5x6.5 feet, with 900 LEDs using ping-pong balls as diffusers. It can play Conway's Game of Life, Pong, and Sketch mode that allows you to create a starting pattern for Life. We output board state information to a MIDI board that allows us to make music based on what is displayed. This gets interesting with Life, creating minimalist generative music.

Thanks to Evil Mad Scientists for their Peggy 2.0, upon which we based the circuit for our project.
Renamed the temperature controller over to YATC (pronounced yahtzee
like the evil dice game). Here the temperature controller is in all
it's glory. Pricing is $50 assembled and $40 as a kit. This can make
any freezer run as a refrigerator at 2x the performance of the best
Energy Star refrigerator. We also use it for fermentations of yogurt,
kimchi, kombucha, bread and tempeh. It can easily be used for beer and
wine too. This is a must have for any homesteader. All the design
files that went into making this are completely open including
schematics, source, and board layout. Includes all necessary plugs and
custom laser cut acrylic enclosure.

Another shot just testing out my Yongnuos. After taking a few shots at f/22 I realized how dirty my sensor is.
Strobist Info: One bare Yongnuo YN560-III overhead firing at 1/8 power.
Here's a project finished a couple months ago. I'm quite happy with how it turned out.
Built a simple wooden box and stained it white for a clean look while keeping most of the grain.
I used Seimitsu buttons, Crown 303 N joystick and Adafruit bluefruit-EZ key bluetooth controller chip.
At launch, the Dreamcast included a number of controllers beyond the standard controller. One of these was the Dreamcast Fishing Controller. Designed for use in fishing games, it was a motion sensitive controller preceding the Wii Remote. The controller features a reel, buttons, and an analog stick. It is compatible with six Dreamcast fishing games. The Fishing Controller was, in part, an effort by Sega to bring the variety of controls available in arcades to home gamers. It is also notable as an example of blending traditional and motion controls in a unique controller intended for a very specific genre of games, rather than in a generalist controller like the Wii Remote.
This low cost charger controller for under £20 gives better results than an expensive Morning Star £70 controller I had in my last van.
After checking levels and tightness of the connections at the battery and charge controller this week in March 2011, I noticed the pulsing equalization charge to the battery from the controller was 14.9 volts, I was a bit alarmed at such a high voltage at first, until I re-read the instruction manual, it stated that when the battery is fully charged and the ambient temperature is at zero or below, the controller will output nearly 15 volts in the equalisation mode for a short time before going into float mode of 13.8 volts. The equalisation mode will bring all cells in the battery bank up to the same charge level, so conditioning the battery. Seems to work as I have never had an Elecsol Carbon Fibre battery fail me in the last eleven years, the oldest battery being over ten years old, putting an old battery and new battery in parallel is supposed to be a no no, but it worked for me, and the charge controller seemed happy enough.
I am not sure just how happy my unregulated cheapo SMD 5050 LED lighting will be with a pulsating (PWM) line voltage/power, although if the sun is out I suppose I won’t be using the lights anyway.

Hi Pete,
The SMD 5050 leds I have are the two quid variety from China, they have the tiny MB6S bridge rectifier so the led assembly connections are not polarity conscious, and a selection of resistors mounted on the pcb rear, but no voltage stabilisers, so they are rated at 12 volts only. Reading the forums some members have suggested that they should work up to 13.5 volts with not too much detriment to their longevity.
On a fully charged battery and when the controller is in the equalisation mode, the PWM frequency is fast enough not to effect the performance of the leds , i.e. no flickering can be detected, the battery would smooth things out as you remark, but the voltage at the battery terminals is still reading nearly 15 volts, not too good for my cheapo Chinese SMD 5050 leds.
I noticed as the cvan voltmeter was indicating 15 volts (verified) while the ammeter monitoring the controller output power, was cycling very quickly between 0.3 amps to 1.5 amps, now I know the ammeter will lag, but it looks to me as if the PWM is pulsing the power and not the voltage. If we get the same sunny conditions and zero ambient temperature later I will put my scope on the controller output to see what is actually happening.
I think you will find the 12 volt G4 LED types that stand up to 30 volts are the ones that cost upwards of £8 each not the 30 bob ones that I have – I know I’m a cheapskate -
Does anyone else have the combination of Solar Panel and the Cheapo Chinese LEDs ? and could check the battery voltage on a fully charged battery when the sun comes up?

A breadboard test of a DC motor controller. It works by PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation), using a TLC3704 comparator chip to generate a variable mark/space ratio square wave. This is then fed to a HUF75337 power MOSFET. There's a 5k pot in a box to control it.
The town of Rheydt once possessed a tram system that was connected to that of Monchengladbach to the north, but it had been converted to trolleybus operation by 1959. Nonetheless in 1963 there remained a considerable amount of electrified metre gauge track in the streets, connecting the freight yard at the Bahnhof to a number of industrial premises around the town. This track allowed standard gauge wagons to be moved to their destinations on transporter wagons called "Rollschmellen", and car no. 142 was one of two still in the fleet that provided the necessary locomotion. I was not privileged to witness this operation - it probably took place in the small hours of the morning - but I did find no. 142 parked by the side of the road with the door invitingly open. It's a good job that there was no controller key inside, otherwise I might have got into some serious trouble! The service was terminated at the end of 1964.
Joint Fires Observers from 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, 173rd Airborne Brigade and their Latvian Joint Terminal Attack Controllers conducted a combined training exercise DATE at Lielvarde Airbase, Latvia. The training is taking place in conjunction with JTACs from the U.S. Air Force and Michigan Army National Guard's unmanned aerial surveillance assets from the 37th Inf. Bde. Combat Team, and is part of a larger unscheduled land force exercise in the Baltic nations and Poland to demonstrate NATO resolve. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Seth LaCount/Released)
T.16000m modded
Wirering base
Hall magnet in place. This locks the movement of the wires in the handle. So no pulling the wires when the magnet is installed.
I soldered wires to the contact points for the 6 base buttons like this:
www.flickr.com/photos/dantdbv/34996968611/in/album-721576...
And managed to short out all of them and had to use a sharp knife point to break all the unwanted connections.
Another solution is to scrape of the paint from the traces leading to the connection points and solder the wire there. It retains the full use of the base buttons.
The next challenge is to replicate the equipment shown here on the rear deck such as the controller and meter housing. The right-hand box could house a knifeswitch or main fuse, I'm not sure.
