Abstract

The automated labeling system provides access to the input mechanism axes and button semantic information to applications running in a windowing environment. This enables the applications to not have to have specific information or interface with the low level drivers of the input mechanism and can rely exclusively on the windowing system and its API to interface with the input devices attached to the computer system.
