Abstract

Gaming controllers have numerous input sources enabling players to move their character, leverage equipment, and navigate menus. One of the many controls is a trigger. Whether this trigger provides a single impulse, binary-state response, or variable- magnitude response to the console, a Hall-effect sensor can be used. This document covers how that can be accomplished.
