joysticke

The term "joystick" primarily refers to a type of input device used to control a computer or video game. It consists of a lever, often mounted on a base, that pivots on one end to report its angle or direction to the device it is controlling. Joysticks are commonly used for gaming, offering a more intuitive and immersive way to control character movement or vehicle direction compared to a keyboard or mouse. Beyond gaming, joysticks have found applications in industrial controls, such as operating cranes, forklifts, and other machinery, as well as in aviation for controlling aircraft. Early joysticks were simple analog devices, but modern versions can include digital buttons, force feedback, and multiple axes of control. The design and functionality of joysticks vary widely depending on their intended use, from basic two-dimensional controllers to complex, multi-functional devices.
