Description

A set of bit flags describing InputDevice characteristics.

The XR system combines the InputDeviceFlags members into the InputDevice.characteristics bitmask to describe the characteristics and capabilities of an input device. You can also pass a bitwise combination of flags from this enumeration to InputDevices.GetDevicesWithCharacteristics to get a list of devices with specific characteristics. For example, you could use the following to get the right-hand controller:

(InputDeviceFlags.HeldInHand & InputDeviceFlags.Right).
