Abstract

Methods, systems, apparatus and computer program products for user input devices, such as game controllers, are provided. The user input device includes a finger-depressible trigger key, a trigger travel path adjustment assembly residing within an interior cavity of a housing of the user input device, and configured (eg, during game play) to switch between a plurality of selectable Finger switcher for real-time switching between locations. The first selectable position of the finger switch causes the trigger key to be pressed a first distance. The second selectable position of the finger switch causes the trigger button to be pressed a second distance greater than the first distance.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to a handheld device, in particular to a game controller with a travel limit function of a micro-force trigger.
