<p>The <strong><code>GamepadPose</code></strong> interface of the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/Gamepad_API">Gamepad API</a> represents the pose of a <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebVR_API">WebVR</a> controller at a given timestamp (which includes orientation, position, velocity, and acceleration information.)</p>

<p>This interface is accessible through the {{domxref("Gamepad.pose")}} property.</p>

 <dd>Returns a boolean indicating whether the gamepad is capable of returning position information (<code>true</code>) or not (<code>false</code>).</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("GamepadPose.position")}} {{readonlyInline}}</dt>
 <dd>Returns the position of the {{domxref("Gamepad")}} as a 3D vector.</dd>
