Arduino Joystick

KY-023 Arduino joystick module; Josytick uses a biaxial potentiometer to control the X and Y axes. You can reach the project related to Arduino joystick as Robotic Arm application and you can do it by getting the course.

A switch activates when pressed down. Based on the joystick of the PS2 controller, it is used to control a wide variety of projects, from RC-controlled vehicles to rgb color LEDs and robotic arms.

If we look at the technical specifications of the Arduino KY-023 dual-axis joystick module;
Arduino joystick module KY-023; It consists of two potentiometers (10k) placed vertically in order to control the X and Y axes, which change the resistance while moving the joystick arm. A push button is activated when the joystick is pressed down vertically on the Z-axis.
