7-bit: Bluetooth adapter for control pads
7-Bit has created a Bluetooth adapter called Ryś BlueLink, with which wireless control pads from Microsoft (X Box One), Sony (PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3) and Nintendo (Joy-Con) can be used with an Amiga 500 or Amiga 1200. Ryś BlueLink has an OLED display that allows the user to configure the device and update the firmware via WiFi.
As the developer Artur Gadawski tells us, users had specifically asked for an interface that supports wireless XBox and Playstation pads and is specially tailored to the Amiga. He uses the licensed BTstack from BlueKitchen for this. The biggest challenge was to keep the device compact and the energy consumption as low as possible.
It is currently only available from the Polish allegro for the equivalent of around 60 euros (plus shipping). (dr)
