This is my first time posting to this forum.


I have just finished a project that involves connecting a PS2 controller to a Boe-Bot. Please see this website for complete information: http://www.aaronklapheck.com/AaronsInterests.html#PS2Robot



this website includes the following: Building instructions, code, code explinations, electrical schematics, pictures, and a movie.



Please let me know if this is the right forum to post to.

    Klap,

    This is the correct forum to post completed projects to, however I encourage all members to post their information here rather than just a link to an external page. The main reason is that at some later date your page may not be there and the information will be lost. Here it is always in our database. Besides that it is more rewarding to click on a link for a project and see the project rather than just a link to another page.

    I realize that idealy I should do this, but I would have to transfer over 22 documents/links, 13 pictures, and 2 videos. It would take hours to do this while making sure all the information is esily and accurately show. Is There some way I could post my webpage inside a post?

    LEGO + BOE-BOT + PS2 Controller + Klap's Pure Awesomeness?
    Nice, I've got an inspiration for what to do with my BOE-BOT. Thanks for uploading!
    Have you ever considered using the wireless PS3 controller? It'll be way awesome.
    The Wii Controllers for a BOE-BOT aren't bad at all as well. I've seen a few guys doing it on Youtube.
    Great work. That's all I've got to say.

    Ahh, yes; there's a project that really intregues me. A wireless PS3 controller would be wicked as hell. But the Wii controller also inspires me, does anyone know of a good place to get more info on these works?
