# value

The current value of the axis.

## Declaration

```swift
var value: Float { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Often a physical controller ignores values near the neutral position called the dead zone. The GCControllerAxisInput element handles this dead zone, and other physical constraints of a hardware control, by computing a normalized value. The normalized value ranges from -1 to 1. If the value is 0, the movement is in the dead zone. A nonzero value indicates the moment is outside of the dead zone.
