Research

To know the possibilities and existence of such a device where the analogue user inputs can be used to send signals to the output devices.I also wanted to know which technology to be used for wireless connectivity, Wifi, Bluetooth or Ultra Wide Band, etc.

I also checked on how other inputs are being given, because I wanted to give input to the gaming console through something which was not a software game interface but a hardware game interface for a software based cosole.

I wanted to understand how do I measure pressure and direction through input devices, and what all technologies were incorporated.



GAME CONTROLLERS

Game controllers consist of game pads, joysticks, gloves, steering wheels, trackballs, etc. I have grouped them together mainly because they are a distinct segment of the controller market, and most manufacturers make a range of different technologies. Some of the devices are cross-listed in other categories, but most are not. However, if this area interests you, you should at least look under the Foot Controllers, Gloves, Joysticks, Miscellaneousand Trackballs headings.
