I have this Firmware on my both Arduino-Consoles, one with 80 buttons and one with 100 buttons and 8 axes.
Is there any way to make the firmware receiving something from the PC?
For example:
i have built my second button-box for StarCitizen.
If any time informations coming from the Game to a connected device, so i wish to have the ability to receive the data from the game into the arduino for response of game-actions.
example:
if i switch the light on a spaceship to on, so i want have a LED lighting up.
sure i could do it with arduino itself, but if i press the lightbutton and i am not in a ship, so the led would lighten up, but there is no light to switch.
so if the game returns "light ios on" so i want the arduino to get that message and switch the LED on.
same for landing gear, HUD-interactions etc.
my further ideas are to put a raspi in the box with an touchscreen.
raspi and arduino will be connected together, but the arduino is connected to the PC as joystick.
so if a information comes from the game to the arduino, so it can send it to the raspi to display it on the touchscreen.
so as for example, if i switch the frontshield to full power, the game responds this action, if its really powered up to full, and gives it to the arduino and it sends to the raspi, which can show this through a graphic.
further examples:
in future, the ship will have extended controlls about sensor, weapons and so on, i think about retaliator or endeavor.
so i can have additional infos shown on the touchscreen, which are not shown on the screen in the cockpit.
so i can control more than i see ingame.
would be nice, to get response here. thanks.
