This is a joystick very similar to the 'analog' joysticks on PS2 (PlayStation 2) controllers. Directional movements are simply two potentiometers - one for each axis. Pots are ~10k each. This joystick also has a select button that is actuated when the joystick is pressed down.
This is a resistive analog joystick, very similar to those found on the PSP1000. These compact joysticks are different in that they have a very interesting 'slide' feeling. There are two resistive outputs - one for each axis, and no select button as found on the larger Thumb Joystick. If you supply power to pins 2 and 4, you can use an ADC to read the other two pins for the x and y axis...
This plastic knob accepts a 6mm shaft and has a 15mm outer diameter. They simple press-fit onto a shaft. These are clear so that they can be used with our illuminated rotary encoders. Note: The encoder is not included and sold separately
This is a 12-step rotary encoder with gray code output and an integrated push button. It could be used to implement user interfaces, for example, for parameter choice and selection (rotate and press). The axis has a full rotation and the gray code output let you able to understand in which direction the encoder has been turned. The encoders pins are 100mill (2.55mm) spaced: you can use with any...
This is a 12-step rotary encoder with gray code output and an integrated push button and a RGB LED. It could be used to implement user interfaces, for example, for parameter choice and selection (rotate and press, light/color for current value). The axis has a full rotation and the gray code output let you able to understand in which direction the encoder has been turned. The encoders pins are...
Fingerprint scanners are awesome. Why use a key when you have one right at the tip of your finger? Unfortunately, they're usually unreliable or difficult to implement. Well not anymore! We've found this great fingerprint module from ADH-Tech that communicates over TTL Serial so you can easily embed it into your next project. The module itself does all of the heavy lifting behind reading and...
