URCade LED Controller

URCade's emulator based arcade button led controller with Arduino.

Check URCade project if you want to use our own pre-configured daemon.

How it works

• You need a daemon installed on you emulator machine that will detect the emulator being launched and send the corresponding number of active buttons for that emulator to the arduino, as exemplified in urcade-leds-daemon.sh. The arduino will receive the number of buttons related to the launched emulator and light up only the active buttons;
• The mode button will cycle between differente light effects (all on, random effects, all off);
• The hitbox toggle will let you light a hitbox on the fly.

Possible configurations

You can use any of the 6 configurations:

• only hit buttons (a,b,x,y,l,r);
• only hit buttons with mode button;
• hit buttons + directionals (hitbox) with mode button;
• hit buttons + directionals (hitbox) with mode button and hitbox toggle;
• hit buttons + directionals (hitbox) with mode button and light sensor (for cabinets with lids);
• hit buttons + directionals (hitbox) with mode button, hitbox toggle and light sensor (for cabinets with lids).

Use any of the provided configurations for your setup, changing the indicated variable in the urcade-leds-arduino.ino file.
