Hi all,

For this sort of an application you should look at commercial Joysticks, the
ones used in arcade games are very reliable, and ones for industrial use are
about the same, they all use the same idea, micro switches. they have 4
switches, one on each end of travel, and allow either left right, up down,
left right and up down, or 8 direction travel ie up right.

Regards,

Kat.
