I am noticing a surplus of the Psyclone tilt sense controller for the
Sony PS2 showing up on sale sites.

Is this controller worthy of hacking for parts for robotics?

Thanks

There are not many posters left on this list. I know nothing
of the Psyclone, so I can't comment on the post per se.

Nah, probably just unfamiliarity with that gizmo. Your original 4 Feb
message was the top return from searching on "Psyclone tilt sense
controller" so I'm guessing it's not the most-mentioned item on the
intertubes.

Thanks for the response guys....I was starting to get the feeling I
was talking to myself...again. ;<)

This controller is a Sony PS2 controller with a tilt
function...accelerator based I think...so I thought it might have
hackable qualities to it.
