Aside from giving us a glimpse of a complex trigger mechanism, Teardown also compares the controller to Dual Shock 4.. The video shows that the DualSense has a larger battery than its predecessor, possibly supporting its more advanced Heptics. Dual Sense’s heptic motors, motherboards and chips are also large, which is not surprising given the more immersive heptic response of the controller. Its buttons have a dual padding system not found in previous controllers. The PlayStation team used the same analog sticks found in DualShockIn, and as a TronicsFix note, this means they can also be sensitive to drift issues.
Dualsense’s adaptive triggers and advanced hepatic response, which its predecessors were not able to, could provide a feeling of immersion. In a recent interview, Jim Rayen, CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, said that haptic feedback, along with other technologies like 3D Audio Dio, could be “leaned to the next level” in the hands of great game developers.
