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. - Věda a technologie
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
The only issue with using a PS3 controller is your input delay is something like 4ms
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
Awesome work man! Thanks for all your work and dedication!
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 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.
Great work! Its always exciting and very interesting to see what projects you create. Keep up the good work.
Glad to see ur still making new Projects 🎉 look forward to the next one
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!
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.
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
Happy new year, glad you are back 👍🏼
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!
Razer bought the rights, look up the Tartarus. Also Azeron makes a cool thing like this.
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
Glad to see you back looking forward to more uploads
always love you out of the normal thinking ideas on gaming! keep up the great work!!!!!!1
amazing tech would love to use one of these!
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!
Thanks for the great video and instructions! You're a good man!
no u r :)
Your videos have helped me create my own version of the gmk analog stick using an arduino and ps2 stick and a little bit of programming
Thank you so much for that. It's just what I wanted/needed.
On TOP
من اين انت
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!
this channel is under rated.
bro you make great stuff
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
Awesome work 👏🏼
This is fascinating.
Bro you always have the dopest tech!
Brilliant! I'd love to see you bring this to market and make stacks on stacks.
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!
got chew
@@techyesterday4960 when but for me?
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!
Okay, you may have convinced me to give it a try. 🔥 Work as always.
Best of both worlds, thank you for showing us all.
of course
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
means alot
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!
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!
Long time no see. Is there any chance to see new videos from you any time soon? I miss them :(
I am glad you returned, this was a very good video.
i only returned for you bram
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
YOOOO this is exactly what I was looking for, man you genius
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!
thanks brotha
Great job, thanks for sharing your knowledge, I'll do mine very soon. you have amazing content 😍
Thanks for sharing
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 :) ).
thanks bro
Insane dude
Super cool project. I just finished building one myself.
Cool video as always!
been a while love the stuff u come up with
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
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
Hey man how you been? It’s great to see you back with another great video!
I've been checking the channel daily and just when I had worked for a 12hr shift recently you dropped this banger
looks great
thank u bro
Fantaaaastic build dude, it's so easy to do. And seems like it's fun to build as well. I'm making one!
super easy. email me
@@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
@jeffsantos93 were you able to make this need help with the pcb wiring?
THIS IS AMAZING
This is dope!
Ahh you are back with this! Great to see! Nice one! I'll email you now.
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
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
wtf, insane work, i love this❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s been awhile I clicked the video as soon as I got the notification 😅
Same here
This is freaking epic man. I would be stoked to win one of these things. I am struggling with the same thing now after just buying my first gaming PC.
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.
love ur content
Thanks for the video.
thank you for protecting the city
I emailed you! Can't wait to try it.
The only controller that is totally ergonomic for the hand! Incredible, awesome!
thanks boss
Thank you for the open source project.
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.
Was searching around hoping to find exactly this
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL SO MUCH
i love u sm
5:12 that option is there for gyro aiming I assume, as it emulates mouse input.
Either way, dope ass product you've got there, basically a DIY Azeron.
Incredible content, please post more
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!)
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!
That looks sick. I've been wanting something like this since 2003, but the retail versions always fall short.
Nice project.
Welcome back dude! I wanted to make one but you never made the files available since last video, I'll email you to get them then :D
ill be waiting papi
Thanks for inspiring my son to try building this.
Wish I had a 3D printer, this is awesome! Good stuff
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.
👌🏽💯🔥 maaaaan would defs love one of these to grind
good stuff and really innovative with using the ps3 PCB
I’m sold. This HAS to be the future of gaming peripherals. Scoot over vr lmao
I would love to try this!
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.
Keep up the good work!
Bro came back Less Gooo
don't have a 3D printer but this is so sick. longtime viewer here.. keep up the great work!
Amazing, I would love to make this with a xbox 360 board though to make it actually plug and play with any game
Coolest keyboard(controller?) I've ever seen!
FINALLY HE UPLOADS
Obsessed with ur content
Ooh giving this beauty away ? would love to use it !!
You rock bruvv!!!
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.
I Love your channel man!
When will it be on sale?
this gamepad is so cool!
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.
Awesome video man. Great design. If I don’t think I can do it after watching and reading more man make me one 💪
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 👌
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
OMG. I am low vision that thing would make my gaming so much easer. Sale that thing I would by it fast as you could make it.
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...
