XRInputSourceEvent: inputSource property
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.
The XRInputSourceEvent
interface's read-only
inputSource
property specifies the
XRInputSource
which generated the input event. This information
lets you handle the event appropriately given the particulars of the user input device
being manipulated.
Value
An XRInputSource
object identifying the source of the user input event.
This event indicates an action the user has taken using a WebXR input controller, such
as a hand controller, motion sensing device, or other input apparatus.
Examples
The snippet below shows a handler for the select
event which looks specifically for events which happen on gaze
input devices. The device type is identified by looking at the
XRInputSource
in inputSource
and its
targetRayMode
property.
xrSession.onselect = (event) => {
let source = event.inputSource;
if (source.targetRayMode === "gaze") {
/* handle selection using a gaze input */
}
};
