Looks nice, and useful. The only other mode I can think of is sprung, like
a pitchbend wheel, or joystick, so it flies back to an origin point when
released. Would only be useful in combination with 1 I think.

Have you thought about adding event control as well? There are a number of
useful USB HID controllers that could be bound to XY positions of the
pucks.
