Constructing the IoT joystick case
As mentioned, our custom case gives our IoT joystick a professional look and gives us something to place in our hands. We assemble the custom case using 3D-printed parts and some common components.
The .stl files for the 3D-printed parts of our case may be found under the Build Files section of this chapter’s GitHub repository. We may see the parts that make up the case in the following figure:
Figure 12.10 – Parts that make up the IoT joystick case
The parts that make up the IoT joystick case from Figure 12.10 are as follows:
- A: Backplate. 3D printed from the
.stlfile. - B: Front shell. 3D printed from the
.stlfile (the part in the figure has been painted). - C: 4 x M2.5 10 mm stand-offs.
- D: 8 mm LED holder.
- E: Thumbstick for PS2 joystick stick module. 3D printed from the
.stlfile. - F: Drilling guide for PS2 joystick module. 3D printed from the
.stlfile. We use a drilling guide...
