TUTORIAL: How to Interface PS2 to Arduino

#TechToTinker Have you ever think of what else could you do with your old PS2 Game Controller? What if you can use it to control something other than your PS2? Yes, it is possible with the help of microcontroller.

In this blog post, I will walk you through on how to interface the PS2 game controller to an Arduino Uno microcontroller. But before that, let me tell you how I come up to this idea.

I am thinking on controlling my Bipedal Robot project wireless. My options are the following:

1. Android mobile phone (with Serial bluetooth terminal) and HS-06 bluetooth module but since I do not have personal android mobile phone(I am just borrowing from my son :)), this idea is not possible.

2. Dual joystick from defective game controller interface to ESP32. I am able to make two ESP32 to talked with each other using BLE but this will cost more.
3. Wireless PS2 controller, perfect idea! I personally don't have it, so I tried to purchased from local electronics store. After tinkering with it, it was just a waste of money. After that, I decided to purchased it online.
