help with setting up a controls system

I was wondering if anyone could post some pictures of what kind of buttons you use on your controls system, or give me a link to were i could get some buttons or switches.

Thanks from Team 3620

Re: help with setting up a controls system

Sorry if this response is too late, but...


Here is a link to a picture of our button panel(In progress at the time of the picture).

Full Product
Inside

We used Arcade buttons from SparkFun.com and a missile switch from Radioshack.

To interface these switches to the Driver Station, we used the Cypress IO board from the KOP, but you can try this

In addition to those controls, we have two Logitech Attack 3 Joysticks(for the driver) and a Logitech Rumblepad 2(For the operator).

Als, if you search CD media for Operator interface, Driver Station, or similar, you can find tons of pictures of some really nice Operator Interface Boxes
