Video: USB-Controller für Angry Brids

Super Angry Birds wurde von Hideaki Matsui und Andrew Spitz für eine Klasse bei Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design entwickelt und ist eine Art USB-Force-Feedback-Controller, um Angry Birds zu steuern, berichtet iClarified.

Super Angry Birds is a force feedback USB controller for Angry Birds that simulates the feeling of a slingshot. All the controls found in the game are available in this device. You can control the pull, the angle, and of course trigger the special power of the bird. We hacked a motorized fader found in audio mixing consoles to simulate the force you would feel when using a slingshot.

We programmed in Max/MSP and Arduino. For controlling the hardware, we used an Arduino-based microcontroller called Music & Motors developed by CIID.

This was part of the class on Haptics at CIID run by Bill Verplank and David Gauthier.
