JoyStick Breakout Module Controller
The KY-023 Analog Joystick Module is a versatile input device designed for use with microcontrollers such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other embedded systems. It features dual-axis movement detection, functioning like two potentiometers that provide independent analog voltage outputs for both the horizontal (X-axis) and vertical (Y-axis) directions. Additionally, the module includes a built-in digital "Select" switch, which can be activated by pressing the joystick.
This compact and easy-to-use module is ideal for various applications, including retro gaming consoles, robot navigation systems, remote-controlled vehicles, and other interactive projects. With its smooth and precise analog response, wide compatibility, and durable build, it is well-suited for hobbyists and professionals alike.
