Wired USB to Wireless

Recommended Posts

Please let me know if I need to post this in another area.  A long time ago, I built a large wooden box to house a standard setup of 2 joysticks and a bunch of buttons.  It connects to my PC via a USB cable.  I want to know if anybody has any advice about converting this to wireless (maybe via Raspberry PI or some other Bluetooth device)  In addition to converting to wireless, I am also thinking about adding a spinner and a trackball (like I said, the box is LARGE)

Any thoughts/suggestions?

The USB device is a zero delay encoder similar to this one I see on EBAY;

I see projects where somebody stuffs a PI Zero into a console controller but I don't know enough about it.  I was thinking maybe somebody here might have made their own Mame wireless device.

Thanks!
