Add support for 3D printed / Open Source ESP8266 "m00ve" controller

Open martinbogo opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

I'm working on an open source, 3D printed controller called the "m00ve" that has some of the same features as the PS3 move controller.

It is WiFi ( longer range, low latency ), uses a standard 18650 liION battery for power, one NeoPixel for color on top and a standard ADXL 9DOF chip for accelerometer etc.

Only six buttons though ( trigger + five arranged in a domino - 5 pattern ). No easy way for me to expand to more because of the lack of pins on the ESP chip.

yeah that sounds fantastic! You might want to look here for some inspiration as well: http://www.opentilt.org/

Most of the games use at most the trigger and one button, so I think having less input options would work, (the webui/phone can still be used to change settings and start rounds)

the esp32 uses wifi and bluetooth, which "may" work better than just the broadcast wifi off of the pi, testing would be needed though.
