This innovative product has changed the way gaming and interactive gameplay works. Instead of the user needing to get used to, and adapt to a new controller for a new console or game; you're going to be able to convert all of your controller movements into keyboard features. 

Features:

  • turn any console game into an easier playing environment by converting gaming controllers into a keyboard controller. Instead of having to use, for example,  Wii u controller, you can program the control strokes into your keyboard settings. 
  • not only button controllers can be converted, but so can joystick movements. Instead of using the generic joystick controller, you can convert this type of movement into a keyboard programmed stroke pattern through an explained algorithm provided on the website and with the download. 
  • Cursor movements can also be converted into keyboard controlled movements through thorough adaption methods. This is slightly more difficult, but not impossible. This makes going through the process of using on-screen directional cursors. 
  • Everything is done with a simple glove programming language, which is explained on the website and a guide is given with the download. 

The program is available on Windows 98 and newer, however, some operating systems are limited on which features is capable of holding. This program will work with any controller that is peripheral with your device (for example an Xbox controller and a windows pc), however many many more controllers will be compatible and work with the GlovePIE program. The only downside to this program is that it will cause occasional input lag on newer computer systems, but it won't be bad enough to cause considerable disadvantages to the compatibility. This system is revolutionary in the consolidation of peripheral and nonperipheral device controller and turns them into keyboard inputs/outputs for better user comfort and accessibility. 

the user can use a keyboard instead of a controller, for any reason.
