ProtoScrewShield

The ProtoScrewShield extends all pins of the Arduino out to 3.5mm pitch screw terminals. It also has a lot of the utility provided including: a large prototyping space of both connected and unconnected 0.1″ spaced through-holes, a couple 5V and GND busses, a reset button, general use push button, and a 5mm yellow LED. This product includes all the parts shown and comes in kit form and must be soldered together by the end user.

4×4 Offroad Race

3D off-road racing game. Powerful off-road vehicles, trails and routes running on dirt roads, extreme weather conditions and violent opponents, all that we call 4×4 Offroad Race. You will be able to experience the most powerful four-wheel drive vehicles. You have to overcome terrible roads, do jumps over bumps and potholes and knock opponents off the track to win all the races.

Controller & Gamepad Tester

Controller Tester

You can begin testing your controller or gamepad by pressing a button or moving one of the analog sticks on your gamepad. When you press a button or move an analog stick, the illustration above should light up or display the movement of your analog stick. When we detect movement or button presses, the “Controller Detected” message will show up with your controller’s name in it. If you have multiple controllers or gamepads connected, then please try them one by one. Even though the illustration represents an Xbox controller, the test also works with other similar controllers.

Joystick Test Application

While experimenting with making my own controllers recently, I needed a nice visual way of testing them in Windows. As you can see it’s pretty simple and just shows a visual representation of each axis, POV and button. Currently it supports Joysticks with 8 axes, 4 POV and up to 128 buttons. I haven’t had a chance to test it with over 32 buttons so I would be interested to here from anyone who has such a device. It should work on XP upwards but I have only tested it on Windows 10 64 bit. You just need Net framework 3 and DirectX 9 to run it.

Gamepad

A gamepad is a type of video game controller held in two hands, where the fingers are used to provide input. They are typically the main input device for video game consoles. Gamepads generally feature a set of buttons handled with the right thumb and a direction controller handled with the left. The direction controller has traditionally been a four-way digital cross, also named a joypad, or alternatively a D-pad, and never called arrow keys, but most modern controllers additionally feature one or more analog sticks.

Thumb Joystick

This is a joystick very similar to the “Analog” joysticks on PS2 controllers. Directional movements are simply two potentiometers, one for each axis. Pots are ~10k each. This joystick also has a select button that is actuated when the joystick is pressed down. This is the breakout board for the thumb joystick SparkFun Thumb Joystick Breakout.

LaunchBox

LaunchBox was originally built as an attractive frontend for DOSBox, but has long since expanded to support both modern PC games and emulated console platforms. LaunchBox aims to be the one-stop shop for gaming on your computer, for both modern and historical games.

LaunchBox includes automated import processes for everything from modern Steam games to GOG classics, ROM files, MS-DOS games, and so much more. Box art and metadata is automatically downloaded from the LaunchBox Games Database, with excellent coverage for your games.

Doom (Video Game MS-DOS)

Doom is a video game series and media franchise created by John Carmack, John Romero, Adrian Carmack, Kevin Cloud, and Tom Hall. The focuses on the exploits of an unnamed space marine operating under the auspices of the Union Aerospace Corporation, who fights hordes of demons and the undead in order to save Earth from an apocalyptic invasion.

The original Doom is considered one of the first pioneering first-person shooter games, introducing to IBM-compatible computers features such as 3D graphics, third-dimension spatiality, networked multiplayer gameplay, and support for player-created modifications with the Doom WAD format.

SparkFun Joystick Shield Kit

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 and a two-axis thumb joystick gives your Arduino functionality on the level of old Nintendo controllers. Soldering is required, but it’s relatively easy and requires minimal tools. We even have a step by step guide.

The momentary push buttons are connected to Arduino digital pins 2-6; when pressed they will pull the pin low. 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.

SparkFun ProtoShield Kit

The SparkFun ProtoShield Kit lets you customize your own Arduino shield using whatever circuit you can come up with and then test it to make sure everything is working the way it should. The SparkFun ProtoShield Kit is based off the Arduino R3’s footprint that allows you to easily incorporate it with favorite Arduino-based device.

One of our favorite features with this version of the ProtoShield Kit is the solderable-like breadboard prototyping area. Half of this area was designed with a breadboard in mind. On the underside of the shield you will be able to see open jumper pads between each through hole to make a connection like a breadboard. Once you add a component, simply add a solder jumper between holes to make a connection. For those that prefer the standard prototyping pads.

Metronome

A metronome is a device that produces an audible click or other sound at a regular interval that can be set by the user, typically in Beats Per Minute (BPM). Metronomes may include synchronized visual motion. Musicians use the device to practise playing to a regular pulse. In the 20th century, electronic metronomes and software metronomes were invented.

Musicians practise with metronomes to improve their timing, especially the ability to stick to a regular tempo. Metronome practice helps internalize a clear sense of timing and tempo. Composers and conductors often use a metronome as a standard tempo reference, and may play, sing, or conduct to the metronome. The metronome is used by composers to derive beats per minute if they want to indicate that in a composition. Conductors use a metronome to note their preferred tempo in each section.

SparkFun Metro-Gnome

The SparkFun Metro-Gnome is a basic digital metronome used to keep time during music practice. This is a basic kit that goes together in 15-20 minutes for people learning to solder, and 5-10 minutes for those with a bit of experience.
