Note: This documentation is for the old 1.3.0 version of A-Frame. Check out the documentation for the current 1.6.0 version
The daydream-controls component interfaces with the Google Daydream controllers. It wraps the tracked-controls component while adding button mappings, events, and a Daydream controller model that highlights the touched and/or pressed buttons (trackpad).
As a first time set up, to use the Daydream controller on Chrome for Android
enable both WebVR
and Gamepad Extensions
experiments in chrome://flags
and relaunch the browser.
Then, open your web app, enter VR mode and place the phone inside the headset. It can occassionally take a few seconds before the controller can be used.
Example
