Some facts, to do and thoughts about hardware.

Teensy++ 2.0:

- Thumpstick (AI0, AI1, A2, A3, +5V, GND)

o from XBOX360 controller

- WT11 Bluetooth module (D2, D3, D7, +3.3V, GND)

o Needs voltage regulator 5V -> 3.3V

- 7 buttons

o ADS (D0)

o JUMP(D1)

o CROUCH(D4)

o F(D5)

o X(D6)

o Reload(D8)

o Run(D9)

- Gyrosensor (SPI interface)???

Eagle schematics to be done

WT11 Bluetooth module:

- I was able to send keystrokes and receive data from the PC using WT11 module and Teensy++ 2.0. Now the problem is to change between command mode (work as HID) and data mode (work as serial port).

Logitech MediaBoard Pro

- Schematics

- connections to buttons

Logitech MX Air:

- Take everything useless stuff away to reduce the size

- solder wires to battery so that battery can be recharged without taking mouse off

Batteries:

- Teensy requires 5 volts. 4 x AA 1,2V used

o MediaBoard Pro can be probably powered with same batteries

- MX Air has own battery

- Recoil need 9V battery

- Android has own battery
