This Joystick Keypad gives you all the benefits of a controller's analog stick over the horrible WASD on keyboard! Plus we placed all the keys in easy to reach areas...basically eliminating the need to spend days upon months trying to master the muscle memory required when using a keyboard. This keypad is more like using a controller over a complicated keyboard. We basically combined everything we liked from all of our other custom gaming peripherals and made the ultimate device.

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

@Tidges01 Год назад

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

@zen123w Год назад

Great work! Its always exciting and very interesting to see what projects you create. Keep up the good work.

@SamSenior Год назад

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

@FNGecko Год назад

Awesome work man! Thanks for all your work and dedication!

@DMonZ1988 Год назад

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.

@Masterpaintingnowlearn2draw Год назад

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.

@bonksii Год назад

Glad to see ur still making new Projects 🎉 look forward to the next one

@ralifoux Год назад

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

@grhand82 9 месяцев назад

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.

@StraitD2 11 месяцев назад

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!

@jdphantom6245 Год назад

Happy new year, glad you are back 👍🏼

@joelhannah2613 Год назад

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!

@ElderSilverFox Год назад

Razer bought the rights, look up the Tartarus. Also Azeron makes a cool thing like this.

@ForIEqualsZero 8 месяцев назад

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

@AleksaStefanRadunovic Год назад

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!

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!

@nosdregamon Год назад

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 :) ).

@techyesterday4960 Год назад

@flrazvan Год назад

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!

@Zufftino Год назад

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

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.

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..

@lorenzo.s.s.s Год назад

I love this ideia of something more organic for actions in game, my only problem would be the jump action, normally the button for jump on this design is the button in the side of the joystick , so u have to stop moving to jump. How u solve this problem other than changing the jump button?

@NeoDren Год назад

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!

@Rhomagus Месяц назад

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.

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

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

@seventhplayah3082 Год назад

@JackBlackJames Год назад

Fantastic video. I would love to try that work of art. I have been struggling with this problem for years. I have tried all kinds of stuff like keypads (that do not have a joystick), Steam Controllers, or most recently I have been trying a PS3 Move Navigation controller remapped with REWASD and an MMO Mouse like the Corsair Scimitar or the Logitech G502. But I still cannot find that magic combo that will make me feel comfortable playing the games I love.

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.

@MichaelButlerC 9 месяцев назад

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!)

@grboomer_8366 6 месяцев назад

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.
