The SparkFun Joystick Shield Kit contains all the parts you need to enable your Arduino with a joystick! The shield sits on top of your Arduino and turns it into a simple controller. Five momentary push buttons (4+ joystick select button) and a two-axis thumb joystick gives your Arduino functionality on the level of old Nintendo controllers<\/a>. Soldering is required, but it's relatively easy and requires minimal tools. We even have a step by step guide<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n The momentary push buttons are connected to Arduino digital pins 2-6; when pressed they will pull the pin low (utilizing the internal pull-ups of the Arduino). Vertical movement of the joystick will produce a proportional analog voltage on analog pin 0, likewise, horizontal movement of the joystick can be tracked on analog pin 1.<\/p>\n\n Includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Documents:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
