Arduino joystick is a device that can be used to measure the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis direction. It is also called the game console. It can be considered as a combination of a potentiometer and one button. This ‘Joystick 5 Pin Module For Arduino’ is an analog joystick – more accurate and sensitive than just ‘directional’ joysticks – with a ‘press in to select’ button. Since it is analog (10k potential meters), you’ll need two analog reading pins on your microcontroller to determine X and Y. Having an extra digital input will let you read the switch.
Features:
Working voltage: 3.3V – 5V
Output: 2 Analog Output Digital Output

How to connect and use Joystick 5 Pin Module For Arduino
Analog joysticks are basically potentiometers so they return analog values. When the joystick is in the resting position or middle, it should return a value of about 512. The range of values goes from 0 to 1024. It can be used for major real-time projects like using in truck and traffic signal direction, etc..
Connection
Connection to Arduino and Arduinojoystick.
Connect Vcc of joystick pin to the 5v of Arduino Uno.
Connect Gnd of joystick pin to the Gnd of Arduino Uno.
Connect I Rx of joystick pin to the 0 of Arduino Uno.
Connect I RY Vcc of joystick pin to the 1 of Arduino Uno.
Connect SW of joystick pin to the 2 of Arduino Uno.
Sample Code –
// Arduino pin numbersconst int SW_pin =2;// digital pin connected to switch outputconst int X_pin =0;// analog pin connected to X outputconst int Y_pin =1;// analog pin connected to Y outputvoidsetup(){pinMode(SW_pin,INPUT);digitalWrite(SW_pin,HIGH);
Serial.begin(115200);}voidloop(){
Serial.print("Switch: ");
Serial.print(digitalRead(SW_pin));
Serial.print("\n");
Serial.print("X-axis: ");
Serial.print(analogRead(X_pin));
Serial.print("\n");
Serial.print("Y-axis: ");
Serial.println(analogRead(Y_pin));
Serial.print("\n\n");delay(500);}

1 x Analog 2-axis Thumb Joystick with Select Button.
Arduino জয়স্টিক হল একটি ডিভাইস যা X-অক্ষ, Y-অক্ষ এবং Z-অক্ষের দিক পরিমাপ করতে ব্যবহার করা যেতে পারে। একে গেম কনসোলও বলা হয়। এটি একটি potentiometer এবং একটি বোতামের সমন্বয় হিসাবে বিবেচনা করা যেতে পারে।
