How to Make Arduino Game Controller - Step-by-Step Guide Stressful day? Deadlines, noise, overthinking, endless scrolling… sometimes the best thing you can do is pause everything and play a game. Games have always been more than just entertainment; they refresh the mind, shift our focus, and quietly reset our mood. When we play, stress doesn’t just reduce… it bursts. And let’s be honest, gaming isn’t just for kids anymore… |

Drone Position Hold using Optical Flow Sensor – Joystick Control with Dead Reckoning (LiteWing Flight Positioning Module) In this guide, we will explore how to implement a control system where you can command the drone's movement using keyboard controls (WASD keys), and when you release those controls, the drone automatically maintains its position in space. This creates an intuitive flying experience where you get the precision of manual control when you need it, combined with the… |

LiteWing Maneuver Control System – Autonomous Drone Navigation Using Optical Flow Sensor The Maneuver Control system is the final logical extension of the LiteWing Flight Positioning Module. While the Position Hold system focuses on maintaining a fixed point in space, maneuver control enables the drone to intentionally move to new positions while remaining fully autonomous and stabilized. The key distinction is that maneuver control does not introduce… |

DIY 3D-Printed RC Car Hits 48 kmph with Custom ESP32 Electronics Lizard is a remote-controlled race car project published by TRDB. It’s all 3D printed components minus the wheels and powered by a custom electronics system based on the ESP32 microcontroller. Designed to be customizable, the Lizard features a rear-wheel drive system with open differential, independent suspension, and double Cardan joints. The drivetrain and chassis are printed using PETG… |

A 3D-Printed Launcher That Shoots Around Corners In a recent project released the thisismax Youtube channel explores how the Magnus effect can be used to steer projectiles in the air using a custom-built, 3D-printed ball launcher. Inspired by DARPA’s EXACTO project, which developed guided bullets that could change direction mid-flight, this experiment takes a much simpler approach. Instead of complex electronics, it relies on BLDC drone… |

Interfacing Dual Axis Joystick Module with Arduino When thinking about the best way to control games, drones, robots, etc, the first control mechanism that comes to our mind will be a joystick. Even though the working principle behind these are very basic, they provide excellent control and degree of resolution in many fields. The application of the Joystick is limitless. We can find… |

Fastest Arduino RC Car using Coreless DC Motors and nRF24L01 RF module RC cars are always fun to play with, I am personally a big fan of these remote-controlled Cars and have played (still do) with them extensively. Most of these cars today provide a huge torque to handle rough terrains, but there is something that was always lagging, its Speed!!.. So, in this project, we will build a totally different type of RC car… |

Joystick Game Controller using Arduino Leonardo We previously interfaced Joystick with Arduino UNO to understand how it works and controlled four LEDs on its left, right, up and down movement. In this project we will use the same Joystick as Gamepad or game controller to play any computer games which requires left, right, up and down movements. To play games which requies more control options, two or more joysticks can be… |

Speed, Distance and Angle Measurement for Mobile Robots using Arduino and LM393 Speed Sensor (H206) Robots have slowly started to crawl into our society to make our life simpler. We can already find the six wheeled food delivery robots from Starship on the roads of UK, smartly navigating among the civilians to reach its destination. Every mobile robot which navigates into the environment should always be aware of its position and orientation with respect to the real world… |

Space Race Game using Arduino and Nokia 5110 Graphical Display Programming has always been fun and it just got a lot better with development platforms like Arduino. Almost every programmer out here would have tried to develop some kind of game using the language that they learning/practising. This helps them to tune their programming skills in a fun yet productive way. I have been a big fan of Arduino ever since I got introduced to it… |

Interfacing Joystick with PIC Microcontroller Input devices play a vital role in any electronics projects. These input device help the user to interact with the digital world. An input device can be as simple as a push button or as complicated as a touch screen; it varies based on the requirement of the project. In this tutorial we are going to learn how to interface a joystick with our PIC microcontroller, a joystick… |
