No, I would imagine the flashlight on TV is based upon the physics of creating a magnetic field by making polarized plates move past each other and displacing electrons from the plates and into a circuit. This requires quite a bit of surface area upon which to build the static charge sufficient to release electrons in a large enough quantity to charge a capacitor. What you are proposing has four teeny-tiny switches with very short throws and very small surface areas. The major form of energy in your system is kinetic energy representing torque applied to the joystick. These are two completely different means of harnessing energy. 


OK.

Make the switch surface areas connect. The bottom of the housing is a metal cup. Or it can be flat. Either way, you put the sensor at a cardinal direction and wherever you've placed that sensor it picks up the electrons passing through as a bit line all the way to the CIA joystick bytes ($DC00 and $DC01) aka joy ports.


Assuming you made a serious reply, my question to you is how do you propose generating a large magnetic field in the base of the joystick? What is the physical action that will release the energy to create the magnetic field? Simply pushing the joystick around while playing won't be enough kinetic energy to charge the plate because your surface area at all the points of contact are simply too small and the period of contact is too short.


So go buy one, crack it open and look at how it's made and imagine scaling it down to something the size of micro switches in a joystick.


I don't need to buy the thing, all I do is research it.
Buy the materials that handle the DC conversion. This will be an American Made product.

What materials? You still don't have a solution for creating the magnetic field to steal electrons from.




What laws of physics, specifically, are you referring to? 


Static electricity.



Wow, you think friction on the point of a shaft is going to be able to generate enough juice to power up a 3 volt circuit? 


3.3 volts. I don't know. Never tried it. You?

Hey, it's your project.  You need to prove it out, not me.



Where can I see your prototype that sucks friction energy from these extremely small contact points?


We're making the contact 'points' bigger. In fact, the entire bottom of the stick houses one big metal plate - flat or round.

So, you are going to have joystick pads the size of D cell batteries with a piston in them that will get pushed through a cylinder to create a magnetic field? This is about the only way you could get any kind of significant energy from such a system with today's materials


Since you didn't read this post and I know you didn't read the last post, please stfu.

Um, yeah, back to that again, are we?


Actually, that was the first thing I wrote, then I added some stuff over it for the benefit of our audience.


So, you were at STFU before anything else?  Wow, you *are* consistent!
