3-4 beers isn’t even enough for me to get tipsy, much less drunk. I literally can’t understand how people get drunk off beer. I can drink the stuff until I’m literally full and just get nicely buzzed at best no matter how strong they make it. Which is fine, I prefer sweet stuff anyway. Mixed drinks and shots can actually get the job done on the rare occasion I actually feel like getting drunk.
Soju is the same thing as what we used to call “fortified” wine like Great White. It lures you in with 20% alcohol being sneaky enough to not immediately buzz you like liquor which then lowers your guard until suddenly you’re black-out drunk singing 80s Nami songs in the nearest noraebang. OH YEONG WON HAN CHINGU! OH HAENGBOK HAN MAEUM! OH JEUL GEO EUN INSAENG! YEAH!
Hall effect sensors may be slightly temperature sensitive and if that is the case, that information would be in the sensors datasheet. (This wouldn’t be an issue on a hall effect counter where the sensor would be connected to a Schmitt trigger and the signal is either on or off.)
For a precision application like yours, there could be a few problems stacking up from a possible software issue combined with temperature drift.
If there are software issues, it could be as simple as a min/max issue with the buffer that stores the stick position. (It’s fairly easy to get rounding errors that stack up after a while.)
Obviously, I am spitballing some theories to why your calibration gets corrupted, so take them with a grain of salt. My limited experience with hall effect sensors has been that they are hyper-sensitve and I have usually had to code around any kind of drift or sporadic readings. Hell, anything that has a magnetic field (just about everything) can upset the readings on those things.
Gots any datasheets or specific part numbers for the hall effect sensors you are using? (I believe you listed some module types, but actual part numbers could change from module to module.)
There is very little information on the Hall Effect sensors on these modules!
www.youtube.com/ is one good (excellent!) source on installing these modules (problems and correct ways on installing them).
I forgot to say the exact modules in my post. They are the Ubituitous Ginfull sensors. These ones have L-8L (yellow) or R-8L (black) on the PCB, which is red and black text on it. Early Ginfull modules have problems with jitter (a non-issue, really), which was fixed in later batches but at the same time introducing an even worse problem, huge lag (presumably because of the filtering they’ve used to counteract the jitter). But these [LR]-8L’s should be better in terms of lag again.
The chips itself have markings “93L35”, they are 6-bin chips and tiny. I could not find their datasheets.
The well-known problem with these Hall Effect modules is that they only allow adjusting centering. So they will “work” in practically any controller out there, but more often than not there will be huge lopsided deadzone(s) caused by the H/W in combination with the previous calibration data. The SC is not that bad since it has some intelligence (I’ve deduced by test) but this can bring it’s own problems.
I’m not aware of any of the problems you’ve mentioned (but haven’t personally used DIY Hall Effect sensors in any controllers before).
There are calibration boards out there, which add a calibration mode between the controller and the module to also get the full range of movement in use. But Steam Controller has no room for those (the shell already has indentations for soldering spots and a mechanism for the back button, so this is feasible only if one is willing to sacrifice a back button or mod around it). Asides from centering and calibration (which needs to be manual!) there is no large issues AFAIK. They are widely installed in modern console controllers. PS4 and PS5 contorllers can even be calibrated (by undocumented USB commands), so they don’t need the boards.
Thanks for the additional info as it gave me a little more clarity on what kind of undertaking this is. I know electronics, but I really didn’t know the specifics of controllers. It didn’t take me long to get caught up, TBH.
That sucks. Before I was finished reading your full comment, I was already thinking of a way to intercept the signal for calibration. It seems that is already quite common and not easily possible for you.
My next thought was to 3D scan and print out a modified shell with a bit more room for electronics. Based on your description, that sounds tricky as well.
Whelp! I am effectively useless here and was hoping I could’ve helped a little. Doing extensive modifications to things is something I really enjoy, too.
(To mitigate the pedantry: Given it’s a rather dispassionate response in the context of a provocation, it is probably a very weak “care” though. Just because it’s nonzero doesn’t mean it’s significant.)
The best trick conservatives have managed to pull is to convince people that everybody is as unhinged, corrupt and immoral as they are. “Both sides” aren’t the same.
there’s one general group of people who want to help feed people and make everyone as happy as possible, one group that just sort of doesn’t care about anything, and one group that genuinely doesn’t seem to understand that other people have feelings and emotions.
In the present research (N = 675), we focus on the relationship between the dark side of human personality and political orientation and extremism, respectively, in the course of a presidential election where the two candidates represent either left-wing or right-wing political policies. Narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and everyday sadism were associated with right-wing political orientation, whereas narcissism and psychopathy were associated with political extremism. Moreover, the relationships between personality and right-wing political orientation and extremism, respectively, were relatively independent from each other.
We found eleven significant correlations between conservative [Moral Intuition Survey] judgments and the Dark Triad – [narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy,] all at significance level of p<.00001 – and no significant correlations between liberal [Moral Intuition Survey] judgments and the Dark Triad. We believe that these results raise provocative moral questions about the personality bases of moral judgments. In particular, we propose that because the Short-D3 measures three “dark and antisocial” personality traits, our results raise some prima facie worries about the moral justification of some conservative moral judgments
I ran a follow-up study testing the Dark Triad against conservative and liberal judgments on 15 additional moral issues. The new issues examined include illegal immigration, abortion, the teaching of “intelligent design” in public schools, the use of waterboarding and other “enhanced interrogation techniques” in the war on terrorism, laws defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman, and environmentalism. 1154 participants […] Twenty-two significant correlations were observed between “conservative” judgments and the Dark Triad (all of which were significant past a Bonferonni-corrected significance threshold of p = .0008), compared to seven significant correlations between Dark Triad and “liberal” judgments (only one of which was significant past p = .0008).
