The pulse() method of the GamepadHapticActuator interface makes the hardware pulse at a certain intensity for a specified duration.
Syntax
gamepadHapticActuatorInstance.pulse(value, duration).then(function(result) { ... });
Parameters
- value
- A double representing the intensity of the pulse. This can vary depending on the hardware type, but generally takes a value between 0.0 (no intensity) and 1.0 (full intensity).
- duration
- A double representing the duration of the pulse, in milliseconds.
Note: Repeated calls to pulse() override the previous calls if they are still ongoing.
Return value
A promise that resolves with a value of true when the pulse has successfully completed.
Examples
TBC
