THE DIAGNOSTIC SUITE

We don't just tell you if a button works. We analyze the signal integrity, timing consistency, and sensor accuracy of your hardware. Here is how to read your results.

Analog Precision

Stick Drift Analysis

What is it?

Measures the signal variance when the analog stick is physically centered (untouched).

Why it matters?

Even a 1% drift can cause your camera to move on its own or disable 'Rotational Aim Assist' in FPS games. This test tells you exactly how much 'Deadzone' you need to set in-game to fix it.

Circularity & Error Rate

What is it?

Plots thousands of stick inputs to see if they form a perfect circle or a restricted square.

Why it matters?

High error rates (avg error > 15%) indicate bad calibration or a fake controller. If your stick makes a square shape, you lose diagonal movement speed in games like Rocket League.

Stick Resolution (Bit-Depth)

What is it?

Counts the number of unique steps your stick can report across its axis.

Why it matters?

Low resolution (e.g., 256 steps) feels 'jagged' or stair-stepped when aiming. High resolution (e.g., 65,000 steps) allows for pixel-perfect micro-adjustments in sniper scenarios.

Snapback Test

What is it?

Measures the 'overshoot' when you flick the stick and let go.

Why it matters?

If the stick bounces past the center point upon release, your character might accidentally turn around or look the wrong way. Essential for Smash Bros and fighting game players.

Input Latency & Speed

Polling Rate (Hz)

What is it?

Calculates how many times per second your controller reports data to the PC/Console.

Why it matters?

Higher browser-observed cadence can indicate more frequent visible updates, but this page should not be read as a lab-grade hardware polling certificate.

Input Jitter (est.)

What is it?

Measures the consistency of the polling rate. A stable connection has low jitter.

Why it matters?

High jitter means your inputs are arriving in inconsistent bursts, making aiming feel 'floaty' or unpredictable, even if the average speed is fast.

Buttons & Mechanics

Input Timeline

What is it?

A timeline view of browser-observed button states.

Why it matters?

Helps spot visible double inputs, though very short contact chatter between animation frames can be missed.

Pressure Sensitivity

What is it?

Checks if buttons/triggers are digital (0 or 1) or analog (0% to 100%).

Why it matters?

Crucial for racing games. If your R2 trigger only reaches 90% pressure, your car will never reach top speed. This test verifies the full range of motion.

Vibration Motor Test

What is it?

Sends specific frequencies to the rumble motors.

Why it matters?

Diagnoses loose internal weights (rattling noise) or weak motors caused by low battery levels.

Now that you understand the data, connect your controller and see how it performs against professional standards.
