Drone takes gaming controllers open-source for cross platform compatibility

Drone is made to work with all kinds of devices, with the OUYA, Android phones, Surface, Kindle Fire, Chromebooks, other tablets and PCs are all supported. Evolution Controllers, the company behind the Drone, promises that it is working with many developers to expand direct support for games, and it has included a list on its website for Android and iOS. It also promises support for all PC and Mac games.

The controller does not work with iOS 7, but it will connect and work with iOS devices using iCade.

Everything is open source, and the company has provided access to its source code. This will allow users to upload their own code and create support for other games and platforms, which has the potential to significantly expand support in the future.
