and disconnect
event handlers when a device's connection state changes.
Constructor
HIDConnectionEvent()
Experimental-
Returns a new
HIDConnectionEvent
object. Typically this constructor is not used as events are created when a device's connection state changes.
Instance properties
This interface also inherits properties from Event
.
HIDConnectionEvent.device
Read only Experimental-
Returns the
HIDDevice
instance representing the device associated with the connection event.
Examples
The following example registers event listeners for connect
and disconnect
events, then prints the HIDDevice.productName
to the console.

console.log(`HID connected: ${device.productName}`);
});
navigator.hid.addEventListener("disconnect", ({ device }) => {
console.log(`HID disconnected: ${device.productName}`);
});
