Gas Pedal Interface
« on: May 29, 2003, 02:53:13 pm »
I have a gas pedal from a konami gt cabinet.
It has some sort of optical sensor that moves a light buld farther away from the sensor the more you push down on the pedal. I don't really know much about this at all. How would you interface this to your computer? Thanks

Hmmm, not sure about that.  An alternative though would be hook up a pot to the peddle.
