controller
Handheld gaming interface
A controller is a person or device that controls something.
In organizations, a controller (also comptroller) is an executive who oversees financial operations and accounting.
In gaming and computing, a controller is a handheld device for giving input: She grabbed the controller and started a new game.
In engineering, controllers are components that regulate systems—a temperature controller maintains desired heat levels.
