Joystick V1.1 MEGA8A - expansion Unit for M5Stack development modules

Joystick V1.1 MEGA8A in the form of a Unit extension for use with M5Stack development modules. The controller has the form of an analog knob similar to those used, among others, in in the controller for the PlayStation console. The X and Y axes are implemented in the form of 10k potentiometers, which enables 2D motion control by generating analog signals. In addition, the joystick knob can also be used as a button. The module communicates via the I2C interface. The Grove connection cable (included in the kit) is used for connection.
