The analog voltage value is then captured with the Tequila Nano controller board. Then, the 14-bit analog values are send to the USART port alone with the state of a push button.\n\nOn the PC side, we use Python to read the data received from the USART port, and then apply a threshold to determine whether a certain action is activated. If the signal is above threshold, we will use `win32api` and `windll` to simulate keyboard and mouse events. These events will be registered by Overwatch, thus achieve the successful control of the Doomfist character.\n\n\n## Credits (names in alphabetical order)\n\n[Haocheng Yang](https://github.com/bill-the-sci-guy): Hardware implementation\n\n[Yichen Wang](https://github.com/yuesha-yc): Software implementation\n\n[Yifei Li](https://github.com/LiYifei1218): Software implementation\n\n[-T.K.-](https://github.com/T-K-233): Hardware \u0026 software implementation\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyuesha-yc%2Fbeing-doomfist","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fyuesha-yc%2Fbeing-doomfist","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyuesha-yc%2Fbeing-doomfist/lists"}
