Can LabVIEW take advantage of controller button pressure sensitivity?

[pastelpony]

Yes, I understand that buttons give only a boolean value. However, I thought this because these controllers have pressure sensitivity (such as speed variation through press strength when applied to a driving simulator) and I wondered if LabVIEW could read this. However, this does not appear to be the case. Thank you very much for your help.

What is the name of this controller? The WPI Libraries may not be able to read it, however you can send the data from a custom dashboard that is reading the controller values with LabVIEW's default joystick input, or by extending DLLs if you want.

An example of extending DLLs In LabVIEW can be found here:

This shows an example of extending the xinput dll to control the vibration of a connected xbox 360 controller.

I've used xinput to map vibration onto a Dualshock 3 with LabVIEW through third-party software. I can probably map this controller as well. Thank you. It is an Intec steering wheel and pedal set, pretty generic.
