~~NOTOC~~ ====== Slider Custom Controllers: Construction ====== The pictures and videos below illustrate the construction process of my slider controllers. In short: Linear potentiometers + arduino + wood + unity. And some more stuff to get the motors working. ===== Specs ===== Each of the controllers (12 in total): * Dimensions: 190mm x 60mm x 60mm, 100mm travel * Materials: Plywood, linear potentiometer, motor unit, cabling * Latency: < 15ms (~1 frame at 60hz) The rest: * A Teensy 3.0 Arduino-compatible microchip, connected via USB * H-Bridge (L293DNE) * Unity 4.3 Also required to run: * A PC running Windows (a laptop will suffice) * A monitor, as large as possible. ===== Photos of the Construction ===== {{ :projects:sliders:dsc00085.jpg?direct&600 |}} \\ {{ :projects:sliders:dsc00087.jpg?direct&600 |}} \\ {{ :projects:sliders:dsc00088.jpg?direct&600 |}} \\ {{ :projects:sliders:dsc00092.jpg?direct&600 |}} \\ {{ :projects:sliders:dsc00096.jpg?direct&600 |}} \\ {{ :projects:sliders:dsc00227.jpg?direct&600 |}} \\ ===== Vines ===== Earliest minimal connection test (non-motorized): \\ ---- Attaching a motor, and controlling it via an H-Bridge through the Arduino: \\
