Gamepad: timestamp property
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since March 2017.
Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.
The Gamepad.timestamp property of the
Gamepad interface returns a DOMHighResTimeStamp
representing the last time the data for this gamepad was updated.
The idea behind this is to allow developers to determine if the axes and
button data have been updated from the hardware. The value must be
relative to the navigationStart attribute of the
PerformanceTiming interface. Values are monotonically
increasing, meaning that they can be compared to determine the ordering of updates, as
newer values will always be greater than or equal to older values.
Note: This property is not currently supported anywhere.
Value
A DOMHighResTimeStamp object.
Examples
const gp = navigator.getGamepads()[0];
console.log(gp.timestamp);
