The SixaxisPairTool works exactly the same for both the PS3 and PS4 controllers.

That tutorial explains how to connect a PS4 controller to the ESP32, which needs the same step of figuring out the Bluetooth address stored in the controller. In my case, I’ve chosen to use the address already stored in the controller.įor a detailed tutorial on how to use the SixaxisPairTool, please check the “ Preparing the controller” section of this previous tutorial. Then we can choose to use the address already stored in the controller (the library allows to use a custom address) or to change the stored address to the one of the ESP32. To do it, we can use this tool (called SixaxisPairTool), which allows both to find what is the address stored in the controller and also change it. So, in order to be able to connect the controller to the ESP32, we need to find out what is the address stored in the controller. Consequently, this is the only device to which the controller will connect. īefore we get started, it’s important to understand that a controller paired with a PS3 console has the Bluetooth MAC address of the console stored. In short, the library is available for installation in the Arduino Library Manager by searching by “ PS3 Controller Host”.

The connection between the devices will be established using the Bluetooth protocol. The objective of this tutorial is to explain how to connect a PS3 controller to an ESP32, using the Arduino core and this library.
