Query and control gamepads in code
You can use the methods in the Gamepad class to access information about the gamepads connected to your application.
Discover all connected devices
There are various ways to discover the currently connected devices. To query a list of all connected devices (doesn't allocate; read-only access) use the following:
It looks like the sample you are looking for does not exist.
To get notified when a device is added or removed:
It looks like the sample you are looking for does not exist.
To find all gamepads and joysticks:
It looks like the sample you are looking for does not exist.
Access gamepad buttons
To access gamepad buttons, you can use the indexer property on Gamepad and the GamepadButton enumeration:

Gamepads have both Xbox-style and PlayStation-style aliases on buttons. For example, the following four accessors all retrieve the same north face button:

Add a deadzone to a gamepad
Deadzones prevent accidental input due to slight variations in where gamepad sticks come to rest at their center point. They allow a certain small inner area where the input is considered to be zero even if the input is slightly off from the zero position.
To add a deadzone to gamepad stick, put a stick deadzone Processor on the sticks, like this:

You can do the same in your C# state structs:
It looks like the sample you are looking for does not exist.
The gamepad layout already adds stick deadzone processors which take their minimum and maximum values from InputSettings.defaultDeadzoneMin and InputSettings.defaultDeadzoneMax.
Using gamepads for mouse input
To use a gamepad for driving mouse input, refer to the sample called Gamepad Mouse Cursor. To access the sample, open the Package Manager window, and select the Input System package. Then select the Samples tab. The sample demonstrates how to set up gamepad input to drive a virtual mouse cursor.
You can also use the VirtualMouseInput component to control the hardware or software cursor. For more information, refer to VirtualMouseInput component.
