![]() This is so hackable! We have clear access to everything on this board. Firstly, we can add LEDs to the buttons by tapping into the 5 V connection with a little wire – don’t forget the resistors! We can also connect our own controls to the digital inputs and use the Xbox controller circuit board as a donor board for USB input. So, connecting arcade controls is totally possible with a little patience. With some 3D printing, we can create custom driving controls by breaking out the analogue inputs to larger compatible inputs. The motors can be salvaged and used in other projects, such as drawing robots which use vibration to dance around a sheet of paper with crayons attached to their arms. The Xbox 360 controller is quite old (circa 2005) but it is still a delight to use when gaming, and now we have a hackable controller which can be repurposed into much grander projects.
