Sliders
Experimental Linear Game Controller with Force Feedback
Hi
I'm Robin Baumgarten
Things I love:
Indie Game Dev!
Based in London,
where we're creating the London Game Space!
Artificial Intelligence
Super Mario Bot
Game Jams
(Adriels amazing Train Jam 2014)
PhotographY
(also travelling)
Towards Sliders
From zero to one Dimension
Make it Hardware: Wooden Box
Arduino to the rescue!
Arduino + Unity3d
TL;DR:
3 types of interaction: Serial, Midi, & Joystick
Serial is most basic & widely supported, but buggy
Midi needs Pro or special Bridge Tool
Joystick is simple, but one-directional
Global Game Jam 2014
Second Prototype: Acrylic!
laser cutter
and LEDs!
and motors!
And stuff
Hardware:
Arduino: Teensy (from http://skpang.co.uk/)
Linear potentiometer (Bourns PSM01-082A-103B2)
Motor: H-Bridge (SN754410 from http://www.hobbytronics.co.uk/)
LEDs (WS2812B 5050 RGB LED from http://skpang.co.uk/)
Ribbon Cable (CAB-10647, hobbytronics)
GDC!
GDC!
Yay feedback!
Software: Minigames
thanks!
