Kapybara

Slaying single-handedly

The Kapybara controller is Input Labs' second reference design, to be used with a single hand, and more focused in accessibility use-cases, yet it still have the same advanced gyro controls than the Alpakka, and plenty of buttons to play any game.

Use it as a standalone controller, and play any game single-handed without limitations.

Or use as a replacement for WASD (keyboard) while also using a mouse.

Development overview

During 2025 we iterated over the external case and button arrangement, and we distributed mockups to a small group of testers. The feedback was unanimously positive.

By using the Marmota module we have minimum requirements covered (USB-C, battery charging, wireless).

In the next phase during 2026 we will start working in the main board + electronics, and mechanical integration with the case.

Use-cases

The Kapybara controller could be for you if:

  • It is difficult for you to use controllers designed for two hands.
  • You still want to use a mouse, but is difficult for you to use a keyboard.
  • You still want to use a mouse, but your prefer an analog thumbstick over WASD keys.
