I think today I can finally say that the controller is finished. I will still need to tweak calibrations when I move from the prototype controller to a final, more glove-like form. An Arduino Micro some Adafruit Proto-Boards. I don't have access to a 3D printer, but I was thinking of either covering a bent clothes hanger with sugru, or designing a model to get printed on Shapeways. With the addition of an adjustable minimum/maximum values for x and y axes, the program can be used by anyone with an arduino, accelerometer (not just the one I use) and an IR LED. The one more thing on my to-do list is to add support for a trim potentiometer.
