A pretty awesome piece of programmable hardware. The active development community is a huge bonus too.
The 3DO’s gamepad is a fairly run-of-the-mill controller, featuring a Genesis-style set of 3 action buttons, yet SNES style L/R shoulder buttons. The middle buttons, typically called Start and Select, are labeled “X” and “P” here. Of particular note are the CD controls scattered around the controller, with the “Stop” square on X and “Play/Pause” triangle and bars on the P button, and fast forward, rewind, and skip icons circling the D-Pad.

It's starting to show it's age... but this here is the first working example of a four way control pad now simply known as a D-Pad. Good one Nintendo! So way back in the 80's when you were clocking "Donkey Kong" you didn't realise you were holding something that was to change gaming did you? LOL
After using this controller and the 400 step/rev motors for months purely as a guiding system I finally started working on the various algorithms needed to turn it into a full-blown GOTO system. This took months of work but I rarely applied more than a few hours a day to the project with long spells of thinking and doing other things. During tuning the PIC In-Circuit Serial Reprogramming interface was installed (the ribbon cable immediately to the left of the 40 pin PIC and the PICkit 2 programming pod is show). The new controller mounts where the original slow-speed stepper system was installed. The leftmost cable at the bottom is for the handbox, while the right cable at the bottom is connected to a RS232 to TTL serial converter (little blue PCB mounted upside down). The bare PCB was about $28 ($80+ for a set of three proto-boards). The PIC chip is about $2.50. The RTC chip is about $3. The motor driver daughter boards sell for about $10 each. The serial converter board was about $3. Connectors and the case plus misc. resistors and capacitors come to about $40. The software implements the basic Celestron NexStar protocol, as documented at the Celestron support site. The system has been successfully tested with both Cartes du Ciel and Stellarium.
Okay, so I've got one of these. Now what? Seriously. Where the hell are all the games? Don't want racing, first person shooters or sports. That leaves..... ???
A side/front view of the electro-mechanical elevator controller seen in the last shot. This had been out of service for some time. In the late 1990s, the hotel underwent significant renovations, and at that time, the elevators were modernized. Although the elevator still has a swing door, and although the Seaberg cab is original, the fixtures and the controller were replaced.
Review: www.gadgetmadness.com/archives/20101214-tron_legacy_xbox_... In the TRON universe, the tank is mainly used by military-security programs and hacker programs.
Since I didn't have like a white board or anything, i decided to use my white towel for this shot.
Doesn't come out as nice as a board, but it did the job.
This was made for Luke, the little boy I made the Thomas the Tank Engine cake for. He ate the hat and an arm off the figurine on his cake, and got VERY upset that his Fat Controller was broken :(
So I decided to make him a new one, and this is him, in a box for display.
Air ride controller molded in where the ash tray used to be, looks oem it is done so well.

I used a squeezy dust blower and wiped off remaining dust with a cloth, but it still looks like this close-up. Yay. :)
(Uh, this is part of my BassStation keyboard, if anyone cares.)
This is from an engineering sample (QK3J).
This is the first die-shot created using my custom automated stage + controller setup. It is still a work in progress and I discovered some issues during this run that I will be fixing before the next chip. The code for maintaining focus across the chip didn't work for the bottom right corner.
A chip of this size would have taken me atleast 4 hours to capture manually, the automated system was able to do it in 2.5 hours with no input from me other than for setting it up.
There is still a bit of residue left, when I prepared this chip I only intended to do a single core close-up, but a poorly-lit and low-res photo of this chip got included in Ivan Musachev's collage and I so I wanted to get a better picture for that.
This is the same chip from here: www.flickr.com/photos/187597251@N05/53015632764/in/datepo...
I'll be uploading the code and 3D prints to github once I have it more refined.
Note that some dust particles have been removed in photoshop.

Quadrotor Flight Controller class at the HiTech STEM Lab at the East Columbia Branch of the HCLS. The purpose of the class is to introduce students to quadcopters through hand-on learning. The studets investigated the physics behind multirotor liftoff, stabilization, direction of flight, and landing the aircraft. Students worked in teams to assemble the
propulsion system and wire the flight controller and power system. Students honed their flight skills through a flight simulator before flight testing their builds in the final class.
Oh my this was harder than I expected, I had crazycakes.eu problem I had a killer of a migraine and struggled to keep going. However this is the end product, I hope it looks like a controller and my client is pleased! we shall see.
Note the distance between the E-Trike and David. That's how far the back end of the LogiSystem's controller went, when it exploded. It probably would have gone further, but the building stopped it.

Interface setup_2009 to capture insects in-flight. This interface connect most of the elements to the hardware CPLD module ( the Terasic MAX II board). All the signals are driven from this CPLD board via the max_con1 and the max_con2 connectors. The previous AVR controller are also connected to this board. Outputs are available for the D200 camera, the 3x flash SB800 or SB-80-DX, the 2x16 char LCD display, the 2 IR lasers, the 2 green lasers, the high power leds, the switchs and the push buttons. Power regulators for the lasers can set to the correct voltage. This hole module is placed into the frame below the macro lens.

The new controller has a laundry list of incremental improvements, from a more precise cross-shaped D-pad to knurled thumbstick rims for better grip.
Hooked up a wireless Xbox 360 game controller to my gaming PC today. Since it was fresh out of the box, it seemed like a good time to take a photo of it.

A month or so ago, I wanted to retire my Logitech F710 and get a new controller. Since the Logitech F710 has the PlayStation controller formfactor, and the fact that I find the Xbox controller formfactor more comfortable (yes, including the duke controller!), I was on the hunt for an Xbox One style controller.
Of course, I always wanted the actual Xbox One controller, but thought I needed to buy a propietary powerpack and more importantly buy a wireless dongle to make it work wirelessly on my PC.
So I found the MSI GC30 that was pretty sweet at first, until the left analog stick was screwing up and had to replace it with a brand new GC30 since it was still under warranty, but lo and behold, after the same 3 weeks of gaming, the GC30 left analog stick screwed up again. Not wanting to go back to the shop and have it fixed or replaced yet again, I said you know what, I will shell out for the Xbox One controller, the powerpack, and the wireless dongle.
Thankfully, as I learned last night, that the later models of Xbox One controllers are Bluetooth capable devices and that I can actually use my AA batteries afterall in these controllers since its first iteration lol so I got to use my Bluetooth dongle that I already own to pair it with my PC and have my Eneloop AA batteries that are always basically charged to power up my controller wirelessly.
Seeing that this is really meant for Xbox One and that I rarely hear their controllers breaking unless by accident or deliberate, here's hoping the analog sticks last as long as my Logitech F710 that is still going strong to this day.

I managed to get the heavy lifting out of the way for the fermentation
controller. It's all still on the breadboard as I improve upon the
minimal firmware, but the BOM (Bill of Materials) is in place and
everything has gone smoothly. I hope to complete the schematic capture
and board layout this month. This unit will be sold in kit form. It is
designed for the following:
- Chest Freezer to Refrigerator Hack (10x power reduction)
- Wine Fridge
- Cheese Fridge
- Keg Fridge
- Kimchi Fermentation
- Yogurt Fermentation
- Tempeh Fermentation
