I quickly built a game controller to test the idea of generated game inputs from the player's posture (shift in center-of-gravity). This controller is built from a digital bathroom scale and an XBox 360 controller. I used an opamp to convert the bathroom scale's sensor input to a thumbstick input. I also added a mouse to capture yaw.
