Turn a phone into a remote controller! No apps. No installations. Just scan & play!
👉 DEMOS + DOCS 👈
BandiJoystick.js is a tiny wrapper library around Trystero to easily allow any phone to be used as a joystick or remote control for your applications / games.
import * as BANDI from 'bandijoystick';
const input = new BANDI.Joystick( "Player 1" );
// add some buttons!
input.setKeys( [
new BANDI.PushKey({
id:"myCoolBtn",
radius:"200px",
onClicked: ()=>console.log("YEEEHH HAAAAAA!")
})
]);
// listen...
input.connected.on(()=>console.log("Player 1 has joined da game, ya'll!!!"));
//add it to the page
input.domElement().then( el => document.body.appendChild(el) ); Sometimes I would like to be able to control an app with the phone acting as a remote control, to be able to be on the couch playing a game I made or an app, etc... So that's how the idea came out. It should be trivial ( I said to myself ) to use the phone to control things... why not just scan a QR code and that's it? No apps, no weird setup. That's what this aims to be.
- For games: Control the character of your game with your phone or maybe make the phone have some extra buttons to simulate a vehicle's control command? a drone?
- For conferences: the speaker can just scan the QR code and gain control of some presentation app easily with no setup.
- For training: Training at home or at a gym? Share the laptop's screen to a big TV on the wall and use your phone to control it so everyone can see some big stopwatch or timer.
- For events: Share a laptop's screen to a big tv and let people scan the code to register themselves or to get info about their reservation / table / whatever...
- A restaurant: Maybe people can scan a qr code to be provided with buttons to call for the waitress or more food, wine, etc...
You do the app, the posibilites are endless!
