This thumb joystick works like the analog stick on a game controller. Two potentiometers give a smooth analog voltage for the X and Y axes, and pressing the stick down closes a digital switch, giving five inputs in total.
It is a simple, low-cost way to steer robots, pan-tilt cameras and menus on small displays, and a common part in electronics teaching kits.
