I’m not {an electrical} engineer however I have been making an attempt to determine one other technique to kill controller joystick drifting for the previous 12 months and thought that an electromagnetic potentiometer might completely repair this subject. I assume this equipment from GuliKit (for steam deck) within the picture requires the IC on the board to have the ability to learn the electromagnetic resistance. I used to be questioning if one thing like this may be utilized to an Xbox or PlayStation controller.

I do know that it could require its personal circuit that could possibly be fitted into the controller on a versatile PCB. An instance of how the circuit could possibly be utilized could be discovered with these different controller mods.

Does anybody have any concepts on how this may work or possibly know the place to supply some elements? This could defiantly have an enormous market if it was made for Xbox, PlayStation or Nintendo recreation programs.
I wouldn’t thoughts hacking up an Xbox controller as I’m very conversant in doing PCB rework and soldering.
