Faking the Future
summary
Design claim: a mobile VR controller that points in 3D using a fused IMU and works without external sensors. Built iteratively from cardboard prototypes and Nexus 5X phones, then a Pixel with Bluetooth remotes, kit‑bashed parts and snap domes for real click feel. Rough demos hit about 80% of the way there, pinewood‑derby weights tune heft, machined plastic fixes 0.1–0.2 mm tactile errors, and the final Daydream controller ships and functions.
