# GCDualSenseGamepad

A controller profile that supported the DualSense controller.

## Declaration

```swift
class GCDualSenseGamepad
```

## Overview

Overview The DualSense controller profile is similar to a DualShock profile (GCDualShockGamepad), but has adaptive triggers that allow you to specify a dynamic resistance force when the user pulls the trigger. For example, you can emulate the feeling of pulling back a bow string, firing a weapon, or pulling a lever. This profile also supports motion — that is, the controller’s motion property is non-nil. If you hold the controller in front of you, the direction of the axes are: The positive x-axis points to your right. The positive y-axis points up out of the USB-C port. The positive z-axis starts at the touchpad and points to you.
