Help my R&D - programmable USB foot pedals

[Monsieur D]

Hi all,

I'm working on a project with highly-programmable USB foot pedals for gaming and wanted to measure interest in the multiboxing community. It's got four pedals, 2 per foot.

Button features it supports:
different actions on press and release
different actions on short taps, medium presses, and long holds
configurable action cycles (so, different even/odd presses, or different actions on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th press, etc. this is good for executing a chain of actions where you already know what you will press, but only need to concentrate on timing)
can turn commands into a toggle, or can un-toggle commands.
keyboard emulation & macros

Further, all of these button features can be assigned to your current controller and enhance your other USB devices. (It can't intercept their input, only shadow and enhance it).

Would this be helpful for WoW, or multiboxing in particular? I'm very interested to hear your guys' feedback. I don't want to spam or advertise on the forum, I just want to get your expert feedback. Feel free to reply here on the forum or email me at sdavenport87-at-gmail.com. Let me know your ideas!

thanks all

Very interesting. There are a few of these out right now but the price point is really high.

How much do you think this would run ya per unit?

[Monsieur D]

We're planning on launching at $79.99 for a four pedal (2 foot) unit, and approx $49.99 for a two-pedal unit. There's also a plan for a 3-pedal (1 foot) unit, which would be priced somewhere in between. We can reasonably create a 6-pedal (2 foot) product if there's market interest.

Does having 3 pedals on one foot seem to you to be an advantage over 2 pedals on one foot? In other words, is quantity of buttons a constraining factor? Either specifically for multi-boxing or your other gamer needs.

I really appreciate your feedback!

You should send me a unit to demo test it out and give you some real feedback. If it looks good then we could arrange some sort of advertising on the site. It would be great to see a new multiboxing tool in the community.
