The idea is great. The cheapest option available is $199 for a slider, two buttons and a dial ... I'm wondering how much it would cost to build something similar out of an arduino and a few electrical components, then connect it up as a USB HID or something. 3D-printed casing too of course. Less than $100?
- icefox 11y agoWould you spend more than $199 of your time?
- daveguy 11y agoIt's the slick design and component based magnetic click-together configuration that you're paying for. Like icefox points out. That kind of design and polish would take a lot more than $199 worth of your time. Although it would be pretty fun as a hobby DIY project (even cooler with sensor blocks for testing robotics/iot/etc).
