The hand read-only property of the Gamepad interface returns an enum defining what hand the controller is being held in, or is most likely to be held in.

Value

A GamepadHand enum; possible values are:

  • left — the left hand.
  • right — the right hand.
  • Empty string ("") — this value is returned if the other values are not applicable, e.g. the controller is held in both hands, or would be fine in either.
