2024-03-22 Still a work in progress DIY Project, stay tuned…
VDASH-EMU 1-1.41 or greater already supports the VoCore USB screen but thanks to V2R Technology it also supports virtual buttons, axes and LED. This 2024 DIY project is about to create very easily a racing car display with:
- 15 RPM RGB LED,
- 6 FLAG RGB LED
- 4 additional RGB LED
- Screen 5″ or 4.3″
- +integrated VDASH-EMU button-box with 32 Buttons (or 16 encoders) and 3 switches
This DIY display project is based on my V2R (Virtual To Real) Technology using an USB controller with my custom V2R LED firmware. This project is under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license. Read the license HERE.
The V2R Controller + VDASH-EMU are capable to manage the VoCore USB screen natively, 32 virtual buttons and 3 virtual switches like they are real buttons and axes so assignable in any game like a real (physical) Button-Box. They also manage the LEDs. Rev-LED and Flag LED are configurable with Ledsmaster software.
Parts List
- Adafruit trinket m0 ($9)
- 5x Kitronik Stick 5 LED ($22)
- VoCore USB screen ($45 – $59)
Software
To get the software license you need to donate 1 (one) symbolic dollar to EKSIMRacing foundation to support the project.
