A compact, two axis, force operated, precision fingertip or thumb
joystick control which converts the input force of the operator to analog output voltages proportional to applied force and input voltage. This potentiometer based
joystick technology was first patented and introduced by Ultra MSI (U.S. Patent No. 3454920). These devices have found hundreds of applications in a number of industries and are in extensive world-wide use today. Model 462
joystick controls can be used as stand alone devices for customer integration, installed in Ultra MSI Control Grips for a thumb-operated grip control, or integrated into custom input systems and panels per customer requirements. Their extra-small size and weight make them ideal solutions where precision control is required but larger devices are not practical.
