Good job u came a long way. My advice to u would b to have something like a Patreon where people can have a monthly membership and u could use that money to send out prototypes and get feedback from more people and speed up your project. Good luck my friend
I literally have a prototype of this I was building with an arduino. The EXACT same thought process. Watching this video through, I was all like "but you can't map it for non controller games!" and then he hits with reMap. Dude...... I love this.
I've been a fan of these game pads for a long time, going back to the Belkin N52. I'm amazed that nobody has iterated on the design in 10 years. Keep up the good work, you may be able to start a market with these!
I dont think thats the same thing and I think theres no problem selling these because they are very different from the razer ones. Also, I dont think you can buy the rights to this exacly like you cant buy the right for a keyboard/@@ElderSilverFox
You always seem te amaze me with your project. the development throughout the years is really fascinating to see. Somehow I feel like this project is coming to an apex. Hope you’ll keep on making stuff like this forever. And btw create a patreon we want to support you and see things more often! Good luck
I have the same issue when it comes to using traditional WASD controls as my fingers are all messed up and can't reach easily without causing a lot of tension in my hand and wrist making quick movements very difficult. THIS is amazing!
Fantastic video and super product you have produced. Trying myself to find a keyboard that are actually playable for my standards, silent as possible, keys that is not to far away nor positioned with no space at all from each other. Looks like you have invented the perfect gaming tool. Would love to try it!
What an amazing build. I think I'm in the same boat as you - been gaming on a controller for 25+ years and using a keyboard and mouse for gaming seems really alien. Great job
Slick idea. Being a programmer, I'd have went with an Arduino or a Pi Pico there- but this, while there is some work to be done soldering, is pretty slick, all things being equal there.
yeah, this is likely the best path now and I expect T.Y. to use this in his next build. it's also a lot more compact than the PS3 circuit board. and you can do all kinds of customizations by reflashing it later when you have more ideas (e.g. chorded commands built-in to hardware -- no software needed!)
Funny you posted this 4 days ago.. Literally just started looking into this because Bluetooth is perfect for android and this solution can make the perfect gamepad/keypad for android gaming. Great job!
You should consider making one with an after market 'Hall effect sensor' to effectively eliminate drift, you could probably source one that would be compatible with the PS3 controller board.
great to see you! insanely good stuff as always. extremely inspiring. given the shape, i wonder if it would be ergonomic and useful to integrate a mouse into the bottom as well, for one handed playing. apparently sony showed off an accessibility accessory for the PS5 at CES again this year so its a topic that continues to be of some genuine interest and importance. your solution is fantastic and with that addition it would serve that market incredibly well. being 3d printed, its also really easy to mirror for left/right handed use. very excited to see what other ideas you've had and very much looking forward to trying it out.
I have been using this for over 2 years. It is called an Azeron, but the Azeron is better because my fingers travel a far less distance in order to hit all the keys.
Awesome video! I grew up a keyboard and mouse player and when I got the 360 I did the exact opposite than you I programmed a PIC to take keyboard and mouse inputs to control an xbox controller. It was ugly but worked and I climb the ranked ladder of Halo 3 like a rocket. I wish I had more time to do projects like this. I showed my son who is getting into Fortnite and is a keyboard and mouse player and he was blown away with what you made. If I ever get a 3d printer I'll probably give making one of these a shot. Thank you for sharing, keep on modding!
@@techyesterday4960 Emailed you, now I'm trying to find low profile switches. Seems like there's no place in the country that sells them, I'll have to import a bunch of them. Ah well, I can save the rest to make more of them hehe
Awesome. I especially love that you could get it to work with just a regular PS3 - controller board. Don't know if it would actually be practical (or even possible), but I would love to try that controller to navigate Blender (a 3d modelling program, that relies on a million keyboard inputs :) ).
I am thinking to the following combination: one hand controller + mouse + rewasd , for almost 1 y, but never had the time to do the research. Your projects goes to a another level. I think i will restart doing the research.. subscribed and looking forward to see your projects. This combination between controller and mouse obsesed me also, for a long time. Nice job mate!
I discovered and binged your channel a few days ago and I was afraid you weren't coming back when i saw your last upload was 8 months ago Also, the mirrored views of your controller mouses are driving me nuts
I was just wondering where you've been for the last while and suddenly you pop right back! Great work as always man, been a huge fan of your work for a couple years now and I hope to get to see what else you can concoct with that brain of yours! :D
your projects are the only reason I want a 3D printer, switching to a vertical mouse made wonders to my right wrist and this seems very comfortable, but I can't choose between this and your mouse pro controller
Love what you're doing here. If I had a Soldering kit and 3D printer at my disposal, I would go right at it. Getting one premade would be dope nonetheless.
I have been using this for over 2 years. It is called an Azeron, but the Azeron is better because my fingers travel a far less distance in order to hit all the keys.
@@Masterpaintingnowlearn2draw Got a Azeron Cyborg but the keys too close together so too easy to hit another key by mistake. Would prefer this guys design - keys easy to hit but unlikely to accidently hit wrong key.
Yes! For months I have been rewatching your videos waiting for this upload and I am totally satisfied and amazed with what you have created. BTW, you forgot to greet us as Bots! XD
Something that isn't as good as this but could be worth trying out for some people who don't want to DIY would be the old PS3 Navigation controller. It had a joystick, X and O buttons, a D-Pad, L1, L2 and a Playstation button. They're nowhere near as accessible as a custom build like in the video, but you can pick them up cheap and then use software to make your computer recognise it as an X-input device
Finished watching the video an I love your ideas for theses projects was looking through your channel a couple days ago as well to see if you had posted anything and as soon as I saw the notification I just had to click on it to see what cool controller you made this time honestly I loved this video and your other controller type builds and mods
This is what Azeron should have been, way less funky design and having to learn an entire new method of actuating keys (with flicks and pulls) and make an ergonomic modular keypad with modded key caps like you did... BRAVO sir this is insanely impressive and im interested to see how for this porject goes , hope the best comes of the hard work.
I had quite the opposite experience: I was MNK for my whole life, then switched to console to play a game with my friends that only was on PS4.. Now, years later, back on PC to have higher frames but I miss the movement a controller could gave me! I'd love to try your device to see if it could fit me!
I would love a dual joystick keyboard with mouse like functionality at the bottom of both boards recreating a psuedo dual touchpad setup. I loved moving from controller to my Logitech G13. That's what got me into keyboard and mouse and then eventually a Steam Controller / Steam Deck. I always dreamed of a dual board setup for more convenient typing. This is one step closer to realizing that dream. Such a cool concept. Absolutely amazing! Thanks for sharing.
This would be absolutely amazing, I'm Also stuck in that same situation where I feel I've reached my limit in how good I Am on controller on fornite wanting to do more and go kbm but I feel so wonky on keyboard but I love the feeling of mouse aiming I hate wasd I need this in my life. Great video 👌
Very to cool to see more videos from you! I've been closely following your progress since your first video on the subject, and it's super impressive how far you've come. I do wonder how well this works sitting on a couch though? It seems like you would still need some kind of desk/flat surface to put it on to use it, which wouldn't be idea for couch gaming. Also this doesn't seem to really fix the aiming precision that you were trying to achieve with mouse controller does it? Keep up the awesome work, can't wait to see where this goes!
This is a dope project and idea and I think your version is way better than all the devices similar to this, That I would love to build this my self but I just looked and the parts link are not in the discription can't wait to see version two of this concept
Actually, there is code you can get to make a Raspberry Pi Zero, an arcade stick, but there's a thing called BlueRetro that could used to make on of this
I just got a maxxstick joystick for fortnite, but i might just have to try and build this myself. It looks way more comfortable and practical. Incredible work!
really like the design on this one, love my azeron, but never been a fan of their switch mechanism/layout. supposedly they are going to start selling something like this eventually, but who knows when that will be
I have a keypad right now and the main problem is remembering which keys do what. A keypad where you can put icons on the buttons depending on what game your playing would be magical. My dream keypad would allow this but then would add haptics, analog triggers, and adaptuve resistance to allow you to for example push one button halfway down, the haptics and resistance would tell the finger youve hit halfway, and by pressing through the adaptive barrier allows you to perform the second action. The mac keypads already do this. When you think you're clicking, that's actually haptics causing the sensation a normal clickpad would cause. I think it would be possible to make work on a keypad as well. could be used to adjusting dps on the fly at different levels cooking and firing grenades jump and double jump etc etc etc.
this is a so interesting to me i was trying to think who you would use it in other games so the remaping allows you to use as a keybord in games that dont have the same fucione as fornite thats crazy also have u seen the wooting kebord i know u dont enjoy using them for gaming but the actuacion of that thing is so fast
Love it when you release new videos about your journey!! And yes how much I would love to win those keyboard ! I’ve played controller growing up .. probably close to 20 years as well, switched to pc and struggled . My aim is great with mouse but yes, I’m clunky with the keyboard. Would love to try build this , Thanks for all you do!
You should post a link to the exact controller and buttons you used. For the record, the original PS3 controller does not have a board for the buttons. It used a polymer thick film (PTF) flex circuit
Ok now what about the right joystick? Maybe make a flightstick, so that way we get much more precise aiming but it registers as just one ps3 controller
i've thought about that too; theoretically if you liked using joystick for the camera that much you could just build two of these, one is a mirror image for the right hand. then you can wire up the controls however you want.
With the second unused joystick you cold turn that into binary buttons with some electronic logic or just attach it to a 4-way hat switch and put above the thumb joystick. When the hat reaches its max position, then let the analog signal through, essentially turning it into a binary button click.
This is such a bloody good thing massive gap in the market spoke to you on email can’t wait for you to build me one really looking forward to using it when we finalise everything keep up the good work
just had someone 3d print me this; instead of a ps3 controller I'm using an POWERA Xbox Series controller. If that doesn't work, I'll just us this Emulate an Xbox Controller with Arduino (XInput)
I just woke up and took care of things I needed to do, the whole time thinking about how I can't wait to watch the video I saw the thumbnail for when I woke up... I'm so glad I didn't unsub thinking this channel was dead. And yes, I did buy a mouse and keyboard for my Xbox... And I hate hate hate the keyboard...
I felt this same way. I bought a used razer Tartarus and modded a true analog stick to it ( its analog stick is a dpad with tactical buttons that break extremely easily.) I added a ps2 analog stick with a raspberry pie and it works just fine. Only downside is it requires 2 usb ports and basic modifications.
I liked the Azeron, but I couldn't quite stand that they used mouse switches. It was super clicky and the way the joints were made had the screws jiggle loose sometimes. I always wanted something with red switches. I have some low profile red switches sitting in a box, but I sold my 3D printer! Guess I'll have to find someone to print lol
I feel the same way about using a controller with fortnite. I recently bought a keyboard joystick and within a couple of days saw an improvement in my mechanics. However, I quickly realised there are way to many binds to remember on keyboard and I don't have the time to grind the game to improve. The best thing about controller is how easy it is to just pick it up and play the game, and the binds are so much simpler in a way as they are all accessible without having to do some crazy finger gymnastics!! The downside is how quickly you can reach a skill ceiling, and having tried different sensitivities, controllers and settings its really difficult to improve. Would love to see a video of how you set the keypad binds up with some gameplay. Keep up the good work. P.s would definitely buy one if you put it into production.
I love your ingenuity with these things. Keyboards are indeed an adjustment for longtime console players. I know because I've had the same problem. All those keys being next to each other and feeling the same makes it really easy to fumble over them all and press the wrong thing if you didn't start out that way. On the flipside, aiming with an analog stick is just awful after you get used to a mouse. Damn near any other genre is fine with a controller but, it's always the shooters that require something better tailored to the gameplay. You keep doing what you do. The answer is definitely there and even you don't find it, I'm sure you'll inspire the person who will.
Btw...I also use controllers for movement with a mouse for aiming on some games, too. If it's a game with little inputs, it definitely works. If you're playing something with more inputs, however, it definitely does not.
Try D3 expandle gamepad (bluetooth or wired connect), it has, PC, PS4,Xbox,Android,V3 shooting mapper (android and ios) also macro(M1 and M2),its cheap here cost almost $10, makes better upgrade😊

However, I quickly realised there are way to many binds to remember on keyboard and I don't have the time to grind the game to improve. The best thing about controller is how easy it is to just pick it up and play the game, and the binds are so much simpler in a way as they are all accessible without having to do some crazy finger gymnastics!! The downside is how quickly you can reach a skill ceiling, and having tried different sensitivities, controllers and settings its really difficult to improve. Would love to see a video of how you set the keypad binds up with some gameplay. Keep up the good work.
P.s would definitely buy one if you put it into production.
don't have a 3D printer but this is so sick. longtime viewer here.. keep up the great work!
I love your ingenuity with these things. Keyboards are indeed an adjustment for longtime console players. I know because I've had the same problem.
All those keys being next to each other and feeling the same makes it really easy to fumble over them all and press the wrong thing if you didn't start out that way. On the flipside, aiming with an analog stick is just awful after you get used to a mouse.
Damn near any other genre is fine with a controller but, it's always the shooters that require something better tailored to the gameplay.
You keep doing what you do.
The answer is definitely there and even you don't find it, I'm sure you'll inspire the person who will.
Btw...I also use controllers for movement with a mouse for aiming on some games, too. If it's a game with little inputs, it definitely works. If you're playing something with more inputs, however, it definitely does not.
@@RockyVegaTV glad u see my vision bro. makes me motivated

In order to make something like this, can I only solder my thumbsticks potentiometers or do I need all the other pins too?
