From the project
USB Joystick Controller 12Digital/SmartButton, 4Analog, 1Rotary, 1NeoPixel
This is a couple of circuit boards that make up a fancy USB joystick controller for FRC #2984. It has both a HID joystick interface and a HID uart interface (for configuration) presented to the computer (i.e. it works in Windows and Linux). No embedded programming experience is necessary to get it to work! It also looks like just a HID analog joystick to Windows.
