The Gamepad Gyroscope Tester allows you to test and visualize the motion, rotation, and orientation sensors of your game controller directly in your web browser. This tool helps you check whether the gyroscope, rotation rate, and acceleration sensors of your controller are working correctly in real time.

It works without installing any software and supports modern controllers such as PlayStation DualSense, DualShock 4, Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, Joy-Cons, and other motion-enabled gamepads.

What Is a Gamepad Gyroscope?

gyroscope is a motion sensor inside a game controller that detects:

  • Rotation
  • Tilt
  • Angular velocity
  • Orientation changes

Gyroscopes are widely used in:

  • Motion aiming (FPS games)
  • Racing games
  • VR and AR gameplay
  • Flight simulators
  • Nintendo Switch motion controls

If your controller feels inaccurate or unresponsive during motion gameplay, a gyroscope test can help identify the issue.

What This Gamepad Gyroscope Tester Can Do

This online gyroscope tester provides advanced motion diagnostics, including:

  • X, Y, Z rotation visualization
  • Real-time angular rotation rate
  • Acceleration values with live updates
  • 3D gyroscope animation
  • Motion stability & drift detection
  • Controller orientation feedback
  • Multi-gamepad selection (test one controller at a time)

All sensor data is displayed live so you can clearly see how your controller responds to movement.

Supported Controllers

This gyroscope tester works with most motion-enabled controllers, including:

  • PlayStation PS5 DualSense
  • PlayStation PS4 DualShock 4
  • Nintendo Switch Pro Controller
  • Nintendo Joy-Cons
  • Some third-party USB & Bluetooth controllers with gyro support

⚠️ Note: Xbox controllers do not include gyroscope sensors.

If your controller does not support gyroscope input, the tool will automatically display a not-supported popup message.

How to Use the Gamepad Gyroscope Tester

  • Connect your controller via USB or Bluetooth

No downloads. No sign-ups. Everything runs locally in your browser.

Rotation Rate & Acceleration Explained

  • Rotation Rate shows how fast your controller is rotating around each axis.
  • Acceleration measures movement force caused by motion or tilt.

These values help detect:

  • Gyroscope lag
  • Sensor instability
  • Motion drift
  • Hardware defects

This data is especially useful for competitive gaming and controller calibration.

Common Gyroscope Issues This Tool Helps Identify

  • Gyro not responding
  • Inaccurate motion aiming
  • Random drift or shaking
  • Axis inversion issues
  • Delayed sensor response
  • Calibration problems

Testing early can prevent poor in-game performance.

Browser Compatibility

This gamepad gyroscope tester works best on:

  • Google Chrome
  • Chromium-based browsers

Support may vary depending on:

  • Controller model
  • Browser version
  • Operating system

Mobile browsers may have limited controller support.

Privacy & Safety

  • No data is sent to any server
  • No controller input is stored
  • All testing happens locally in your browser

This makes our tool 100% safe and private.
