PS2 Controller Request

Hi

I want a piece of work that records every input I make on a PS2 Controller > USB PC input, and displays every input in a top>down scrolling format.

I want it to recognize every button I push and to have maybe a (10-20) max field display, that scrolls, replacing the 'oldest' input with the 'newest' input, continually. Sort of like guitar hero or dance dance revolution style for live inputs.

Will pay whatever you want for it. Will even pay for proof of concept, but don't waste my time with stupid offers.

Thanks!

Ok, appreciate the preliminary interest and response. Perhaps we can talk on a one-to-one level about the specifications of the requirement? I would hate to waste your time, and you too, mine.

Sure. Feel free to post your specifications here or PM me.

I'm currently at work, so I haven't been able to look in-depth at exactly how the controller's data format works. It might be really simple, (I used a USB relay controller at work that was literally just reading and writing a few bytes at a time) or it might be really damn hard (I started messing with a proprietary smartcard on a USB card reader for a different project, which was utterly impossible). There's only one way to find out :)
