Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The angularVelocity read-only property of the GamepadPose interface returns an array representing the angular velocity vector of the Gamepad, in radians per second.
In other words, the current velocity at which the sensor is rotating around the x, y, and z axes.
Syntax
var myGamepadAngVel = gamepadPoseInstance.angularVelocity;
Value
A Float32Array, or null if the gamepad is not able to provide angular velocity information.
Examples
TBD
