  • DisKnobUI

    Discontinued Experiment in using an old hard-disk as a rotary input device (with an Arduino and a Raspberry Pi).

    I built one of those many years ago as well. :)

    It thought about using that (the spindle motor from a hard-disk) for this project. The issue is that it's not very precise at very low speeds.
