Comment on The Steam Deck Is Now Being Used To Control Mars Rovers
dmir@gehirneimer.de 4 weeks agoI think capacitor sensors might make better dead-man switches here, especially with chords (requiring both being active at the same time), as holding the grip buttons feels kinda tiring quickly and awkward to my hands.
But it's still so cool.

Capacitive buttons can get pressed by drops of water, so I personally think the physical buttons are better for a safety system.

Yeah, good point, hadn't thought of that.
