replace Cypress with Arduino?

our Cypress is MIA, working on custom control panel. We got what we need working working with an HID look-a-like, but am thinking about doing a cypress lookalike with a Arduino (should be able to emulate, theoritically).

Has anyone looked at this yet?

I am aware of the estop CCI, and will go that route if necessary, but we have some programming bandwidth right now....

I made my own controller this year using an accelerometer and an Arduino. It's pretty cool. I used an MPU6050 3-axis accelerometer and an Arduino Uno. I also used an LCD screen to present the speed it sends out to Driver Station. There are some pics in the referenced thread.

Good luck!

Re: replace Cypress with Arduino?

got it working. Need an Arduino Leonardo, read http://www.imaginaryindustries.com/blog/?p=80 (it involves making a couple of changes to your Arduino development environment), and...

voila! my Arduino thinks it's a 8 axis 32 button joystick...
