Yes, you can control your JD Humanoid robot using a Steam Deck controller. The Steam Deck controller can be configured to work with ARC through the Joystick (XInput) skill, as it supports XInput devices like Xbox controllers.

Here are the steps to set it up:

  1. Connect the Steam Deck Controller:

    • Ensure your Steam Deck controller is connected to your PC via USB or Bluetooth.
  2. Add the Joystick (XInput) Skill:

    • Open your ARC project.
    • Go to Project -> Add Skill -> Remote Control -> Joystick (XInput).
    • Select the Joystick (XInput) skill from the list and add it to your project.
  3. Configure the Joystick (XInput) Skill:

    • Open the Joystick (XInput) skill configuration by clicking the gear icon.
    • In the Device drop-down menu, select your Steam Deck controller.
    • Configure the joystick settings as needed. You can assign the left joystick to control the Movement Panel and configure the buttons to perform specific actions.
  4. Add and Configure the Movement Panel:

    • Ensure you have a Movement Panel added to your project. For JD Humanoid, you can use the Auto Position GAIT or any other suitable movement panel.
    • Configure the Movement Panel to control the servos and movements of your JD Humanoid.
  5. Test the Setup:

    • Once everything is configured, test the joystick inputs to ensure they control the JD Humanoid as expected.
    • You can move the joystick to control the robot's movement and use the buttons for additional actions.
