Revision history [back]

Apparently Apple includes a generic joystick driver for the PS3 controller, see the fifth post here: http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/30444/t1330489-ps3-controller-as-mac-joystick/ . This solves the hard problem of how to pair the PS3 controller and turn it into a joystick.

Unfortunately, there isn't a general ROS joystick driver for OS X yet, but it shouldn't be too hard to use the joystick input from pygame to write one.
