getcontrollermotion

getcontrollermotion(controller?) reads the motion sensors of a connected controller, or nil if the controller is missing or doesn't have motion sensors.

local motion = getcontrollermotion()
if motion and motion.hasAttitude then
    local q = motion.attitude -- {x, y, z, w}
end

Parameters

• controller (number, optional): the controller index, starts at 1

Returns

• attitude (table): quaternin, {x, y, z, w}
• rotationRate (Vector3): radians per second
• acceleration (Vector3): includes gravity, in g
• hasAttitude (boolean)
• hasRotationRate (boolean)

Notes

Keep in mind that rotation DRIFTS over time, so you will need to have some kind of recentering option.
