my relationship with technology and apple/microsoft specifically can be perfectly represented by the fact that i am typing this on

a Microsoft ergonomic PS/2 keyboard from the 90s

plugged into an active PS/2-USB converter

plugged into the USB slot on a programmable keypad

that can only be programmed on a Windows device

plugged into a USB-C hub with USB A slots, an HDMI slot, an ethernet slot, and SD/microSD slots

that I bought on NewEgg for half the price of Apple's shitty peripherals

plugged into my M1 MacBook Air, which I actually like rather a lot

Xbox Adaptive Controller Hub

A dedicated page for information on the Xbox Adaptive Controller. Continuously updated. A more detailed breakdown is available past the jump.

Useful links:

Video guides to using the XAC by the MS Gaming Accessibility Team: Detailed visual breakdown on how to use the various XAC features, easier to parse and find info than the dedicated support pages.

Xbox Adaptive Controller Input Device Specifications: Specs on how exactly the ports on the XAC are wired, what inputs are supported, and how they connect to TRS and TRRS connectors. Useful for making custom switches/potentiometer based devices for the XAC.

OVERVIEW The Xbox Adaptive Controller is essentially a hub for pairing multiple input devices into a which output as a regular Xbox controller. The advantage of this is more flexibility in what devices and games you can connect to, without a reliance on separate software.

For example, you could use the USB inputs on the side to attach joysticks to emulate each analog stick, with other individual buttons controller by various other styles and sizes of switch.

Because this is a hardware solution, it can also be used on various other platforms by using converters. For example, you could use a Mayflash Magic S adapter to play on Switch or PS4.

The various 3.5mm jacks on the back also correspond to various inputs, so they can be switched on the fly by simply plugging them into a different port. Each of these ports can also be reassigned using the Xbox Accessories app on Windows or Xbox, and up to three profiles saved to the controller itself--not including the default, unchanged profile.

USB Port Mappings

There are two USB ports, one on either side, and which one you plug a controller into will decide which analog stick it is mapped to, and what the corresponding buttons do. Controllers must be D-Input/HID joystick protocol, meaning no Xbox controllers or controllers reading as x-input are supported. PS4 devices are also generally not supported, though if it has a PS3 compatibility option that may work.

The first 8 assigned buttons will be mapped automatically. These buttons can be remapped, but there will be some overlap on each USB port, and the available buttons CANNOT be reassigned. You'll want to know which buttons are available beforehand. Directional hatswitches/dpads will also not be assigned, unless they read as individual buttons.

The default mappings are show below.

You can see that each side shares the X1, X2, Menu, and View buttons, though with each flipping the 1,2 and 7,8 assignments.

NOTE: Reassigning the Menu and View buttons will NOT reassign the corresponding buttons on the XAC unit itself. So if you're ok accessing those buttons through the hub you can essentially treat those as two extra wild card buttons (X1 and X2 are the other wild cards).

Supported USB Controllers:

A list of controllers I've personally found to work with the XAC.

-8bitdo Lite 2: left analog, face buttons and shoulder buttons available. Triggers unmapped. (8Bitdo Lite does not work).

-Brook Fightboard PCBs: XB Fighting Board not compatible. PS4 compatible PCBs can be used by assigning the directions to Left Stick and making sure it boots up in PS3 mode.

-GP2040ce Advanced Breakout Board. Can be used by assigning the directions to Left Stick and making sure it boots up in Dinput mode.

-Logitech X52 HOTAS: analog axis, trigger, pinky and top buttons, as well as T1/T2 buttons detected. No twist axis or hat switches. Must be plugged into throttle to function, but no buttons or axes on the throttle are detected.

-Saitek AV8R-01 HOTAS PS3 Edition: analog axis, trigger, top buttons as well as T1-4 detected. No twist axis or hat switches.

-Thrustmaster T16000 HOTAS: analog axis, trigger, top buttons as well as the top button row on the left side, and rightmost button on the row below are detected. Function buttons can be switched by toggling the left/right handed switch on the bottom of the stick.

Winter break progress

Pivoting my focus of Senior Capstone project to playability and bringing awareness to games that never left japan and recreating their unconventional control schemes by using leftover materials and reusing/recycling old parts to perfectly emulate the arcade experience. This project is to help raise awareness for these games and let people outside of japan be able to play and fully experience these types of new & interesting interactive media that stayed exclusive to Japan for so long. For this project I am focusing on recreating 2 japan exclusive games in particular:

Hyper Bishi Bashi Champ

and Gaia Attack 4

I chose these two games for a couple of reasons:

They allow for a large number of people to play at once so it is more fun & engaging in a group setting (3 players for Bishi Bashi and 4 players for Gaia Attack)

These games both have unconventional and interesting control schemes that are intuitive and very user friendly while also being difficult to replicate outside of the arcade (gaia attack is a 4 player light gun game - might in fact have been the very first one to ever exist in an arcade setting. Ghost squad on wii had a four player mode but Gaia attack 4 might have been one of if not THE first 4 player light gun game in arcades. As for bishi bashi it is a minigame compilation that plays very similar to wario ware HOWEVER it actually predates wario ware by about 6 or 7 years. It uses a 3 button layout, red, blue, and green to play several different minigames)

Both of these games have an english translated version of them however it was only used for localization testing and unfortunately never made it to the west (Hyper bishi bashi might have been sold in select parts of Europe but Gaia attack 4 definitely only stayed in japan outside of exports) - but thanks to recent advancements in arcade emulation both of these games are able to be played on PC which is how I'll be attempting to recreate their setups that they had in the arcade

Both of these games also have very interesting light outputs that thanks to a certain program called mamehooker we can actually pick up those light outputs and use them to replicate what the arcade button lights would have looked like by using another device called a PacDrive that can turn led buttons on and off dynamically (Left - Box with Keyboard encoder and PacDrive - encoder will translate button presses to keyboard keys which can then be binded in the emulator while the PacDrive deals with each indivdual buttons own led outputs, Right - Mamehooker code ran in the background while game is playing which is then used to tell the PacDrive when to turn each button on and off during gameplay)

Currently for the Gaia Attack 4 cabinet I have since completed modding all 4 old broken lightguns I bought off ebay to be converted in PC lightguns as well as soldering and connecting all 4 sensors needed to use the Gun4IR program that makes the guns work for computers. This way I can play the game via an emulator on a special mini PC I bought that supports a large amount of usb hubs capable of having all 4 guns operational at once, thus fully recreating the 4 player arcade experience

I'm going to focusing on creating additional things like the marquee and the start buttons after I finish getting the Bishi Bashi cabinet working. I ordered a bunch of 12V arcade buttons who's colors match what is seen on an original bishi bashi arcade cabinet and tried soldering the pacdrive and keyboard encoder wires to it to get it to work. I've since started tinkering with the pacdrive and keyboard encoder and have managed to get one of the buttons to hook up in sync with the game as can be seen in this video - https://youtu.be/vgcoYbzzwVM?si=tfQEttBDrflTiNCW

While this is good substantial progress, I tried hooking up two buttons later and couldnt get it to work unfortunately so there is still is a lot of troubleshooting and tweaking I will most likely have to do and go back and resolder to wires or check the connections with a multimeter to see where I went wrong. I will continue to post future updates as I make progress on my capstone project.

What Makes The Laptop Stand Docking Station Famous?

Technology has continuously improved, and the products invented to make our lives in and out of the workplace more efficient and enjoyable have improved accordingly. Two such creations are the laptop stand docking station and the 3D snowflake Christmas tree. These gadgets may differ in their purposes but each in its own way has revolutionized how we work, live, and even celebrate.

Apart from ergonomics, a docking station offers many functional upgrades for your laptop. Extra ports to connect USB devices, HDMI for connecting with external displays, and audio jacks turn your laptop into a full-fledged desktop workstation. This is quite useful for professionals who require connecting with several devices or use larger screens but want the portability of a laptop.

Another is the decluttering of your work surface. A docking station ties up all the necessary connections in one hub, removing cluttered cables from your desk. Most docking stations also have cable management systems built into them to keep everything tidy and organized.

The best of both worlds for people using their laptops to work and play is through a laptop stand docking station - the power and convenience of a desktop setup along with the portability of a laptop. Thus, this product is ideal for those people wanting to maximize productivity while enjoying an easily maintained comfortable workspace.

3D Snowflake Christmas Tree

Even though the laptop stand docking station and 3D snowflake Christmas tree will have a different purposes of usage, they make an enormous difference in the living conditions of humankind.
