GamepadPose: orientation property

{{APIRef("WebVR API")}}{{SeeCompatTable}}

The orientation read-only property of the {{domxref("GamepadPose")}} interface returns the orientation of the {{domxref("Gamepad")}}, as a quaternion value.

The value is a {{jsxref("Float32Array")}}, made up of the following values:

• pitch — rotation around the X axis.
• yaw — rotation around the Y axis.
• roll — rotation around the Z axis.
• w — the fourth dimension (usually 1).

The orientation yaw (rotation around the y axis) is relative to the initial yaw of the sensor when it was first read.

Value

A {{jsxref("Float32Array")}}, or null if the VR sensor is not able to provide orientation data.

Examples

TBD

[!NOTE] An orientation of { x: 0, y: 0, z: 0, w: 1 } is considered to be "forward".
