Here is one way to combine the best of both worlds and make a normally autonomous Boe-Bot remote controlled – complete with joystick rumble feedback for sensor detections.The toughest part of this project is building the mechanical/electrical interface. You can solve the connector problem by buying a $10 PlayStation extension cable and carefully cutting the socket from one end of it. With a few resistors and a transistor the circuit will be complete and will protect the BASIC Stamp® microcontroller from any dangerous game controller induced electrical noise. [...]
