Hall Effect Sensor Joystick Mod

Hall effect joystick have many variant.

Hall effect sensor joystick mod.

An arduino micro reads the sensors and converts the analog signal to usb. An alternative joystick solution is the as5013 hall effect ic from ams which uses a tiny moving magnet to determine x y position. The design is such that any degradation to the led light sources by time or temperature are compensated by a patented redundant differential light sensor design within the optical joystick thus having zero effect on its reliability or durability. Attempting project found here.

The optical joystick has only advantages over the inductive joystick hall effect joystick and potentiometer joystick. Looking to have small parts printed for mounting the magnets and sensors inside the joystick. Step files are. A third hall effect sensor is used to measure a throttle stick positioned on the side of the box.

Joystick mod hall effect sensors in a logitech 3d pro. My x52 last all of 2 years before the sensors just stopped working and started giving super jittery and completely inaccurate inputs in both the throttle and the stick. In order to compatible with arduino it should be powered by 5v and output 2 axis analog values in the range within 0 5v. Posted by 10 months ago.
