Description

USB Adapter for Arcade Trackball/Spinner and LS30 Rotary Joysticks

Using a Raspberry Pi Pico as a USB HID mouse/keyboard device,

An encoder based device can be connected, such as a two axis trackball, single axis arcade spinner etc.

The encoder device then controls a USB mouse on the computer, including within games.

For arcade emulation with games that use mechanical rotary joysticks (Ikari Warriors, Guerrilla War etc),

Two joysticks can have their 13 pin connector plugged in and when the joystick is rotating, a USB keystroke is sent out to indicate movement clockwise or counter clockwise, and the game emulator can rotate the character.
