Someone needs Ben to make a specialized controller, but he only decides to tackle the project after a change of heart.
Someone needs Ben to make a specialized controller, but he only decides to tackle the project after a change of heart.
Obsessed with pinball, Ben has a change of heart after being visited by 3 spectral spirits.
Ben describes how he plans to build a macro controller that turns simple button presses into complex actions.
Ben wires up "sniffer lines" to all of the controller buttons, so it can be used normally, or by an external device.
Ben describes how the controller is interfaced with the microcontroller and shows how the macros are programmed.
To help the user, Ben attaches an LCD screen to the unit and describes how to use it.
Ben shows the macro controller doing complex moves in a fighting game.

@cwkraft Logan's Run remake more relevant now than in 70's. Good sci-fi takes a concept (kill old people to save money) and explores it.

@UCFH Haha, nice one!
