SkyHub supports controlling vehicles with a gamepad. The system was tested with PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 controllers, but any controller supporting the Browser Gamepad API will work.

Log in to SkyHub: https://skyhub.ai
Select a vehicle in the web interface and press any gamepad button to connect. A WebSocket connection is established to the selected drone.
