Scorpion Joystick filed 1 patent application in the Hardware category.
The application describes a modular joystick design that separates the user input shaft from the sensing mechanism through a lever linkage. This architecture allows for swappable spring and elastomer components to customize the feel of the joystick for gaming and industrial control applications.
The Hardware patent describes a joystick where the shaft you actually grip and move is mechanically separated from the sensors that detect motion. A lever system connects these two parts, with a shorter internal lever linked to the sensor through a spherical element that slides inside a bore running through the shaft. This arrangement lets engineers adjust how far the sensor moves relative to how far the user pushes the stick by changing the relative lengths of the levers, rather than redesigning the sensor Hardware itself. The design also allows users to swap out different biasing components like coil springs, conical springs, or elastomers to change how the joystick feels in hand without replacing the entire assembly.
