All the control in your hand
The Kapybara controller is Input Labs' second reference design, to be used with a single hand, and more focused in disability use-cases, yet it still have the same advanced gyro controls than the Alpakka.
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.
Next phase starts in 2025
We already solved most of the basic features by developing the Marmota module, which will also become the core of the Kapybara controller.
The next phase will be to create the Kapybara workgroup, a small group of testers and contributors.
There is a lot of work to do figuring out the physical layout of the controller, how many buttons and inputs will have, and how they will be placed. We expect this work to start in Q2 2025.
Use-cases
The Kapybara controller could be for you if:
- It is difficult for you to use controllers designed for 2 hands.
- You still want to use mouse, but is difficult for you to use a keyboard.
- You still want to use mouse, but your prefer an analog thumbstick over WASD keys.
