Title: SixtyninNaMoose's Glowing Voice Controller
Post by: SixtyninNaMoose on August 31, 2012, 12:36:54 PM: Hey guys, I've been thinking and I know exactly what I'm doing. I'm creating a 360 controller with:

1) Voice Recognition
2) IR Tracking for finger
3) Clear Acrylic Case with LED's & button swap
4) Rapid Fire
5) Foot activated Trigger

1) For this I'm putting together a kit from Imagesco.com
2) I'll be using a head tracking IR mod as reference
3) I'll be shaping my sheet of acrylic and I'm lighting with LED's
4) I'll be using the MAX rf from Sethmods
5) I'll be creating a foot switch

Here's the controller I'm using:
By the way Microsoft blows, first time I had to deal with the torx screws. However I found out you don't need a torx driver, just break the poop.lol

Here's the acrylic after bending:
Took 2 days of experimenting and 1 1/2 square ft of acrylic sheet, it's my 1st time bending acrylic.

Here's the cg2 board prepped for wiring with grounds already wired. I'm waiting some 30awg wire for everything else.

I got the Imagesco SR-06 Speech Recognition Kit in and started assembly today, got 1 board 90% done. The kit is missing a bunch of resistors, so I'll have to go get some.

Here's a pic:

OK finally finished assembling my voice recognition module. The build instructions sucked, so frustrating. Should be able to do some testing tomorrow.

Here's some pics:
