From the project

Augmentative and alternative communications device design files based on inexpensive and open source technologies.

These directories contain design files for an arcade joystick peripheral.

This sensor can be plugged into an analog (yellow) controller input. It is activated by moving the handle.

Internal hardware mechanism is an arcade style 4/8 way joystick purchased from China.

It is held in place by four 8-32 x 1½" machine screws inserted into 4 embedded 8-32 nuts.

The joystick is connected to the interface PCB using hook-up wire:
