Re: USB Joystick adapter is here!

You can count on it. They may not be fully functional, as we are still fine tuning. But they will be there.

Re: USB Joystick adapter is here!

The O/I has 4 analog channels/port. We use the extra two analog channels as digital when they are not used for analog.

BTW

Congrats on your recent TV appearance.

Re: USB Joystick adapter is here!

You are correct. The Chicklet will support ANY HID device. The only limitation is what we (CTRE) introduce. You are also correct in your statement about mapping the inputs. However we have...

Re: USB Joystick adapter is here!

Where were you pulling power from? I assume the joyport LED outputs. If that is the case, there is no way the O/I can provide enough power for the Chicklet, and the USB device. 200+mA up to a MAX...

Re: USB Joystick adapter is here!

This was the plan if external power was not available. However I'm sure a lot of matches will go poorly due to dead batteries. I see the battery pack as another failure point therfore I do not...

Re: USB Joystick adapter is here!

Another key point is that no matter how much power is put into the O/I joystick ports, if the O/I is disabled the robot is disabled.

Re: USB Joystick adaptor is here!

So as I see it the question is, can FIRST ensure safety on the field while allowing externally powered devices connected to the O/I joystick ports? Maybe their answer is no. Or maybe it is...

Re: USB Joystick adaptor is here!

The connector is a 2.1mm center positive. The supply is included with the device.



This is the important question indeed. We are working to find a way to power it off of the O/I. A possibility...

Re: USB Joystick adaptor is here!

The Chicklet is a USB host. Without diving deep into USB protocol, I will say that it will support ALL device functionallity. However one must understand that the device is broken down into two...

Re: USB Joystick adaptor is here!

This product was created by Omar Zrien and myself. I cannot accept sole credit for it's creation. And don't get to excited. You have not seen the price yet.

Re: USB Joystick adaptor is here!

Yah, I know, I'm...
