joystick control
Lever-based gaming input
Joystick control is a method of operating machinery, vehicles, or software using a joystick—a lever that tilts in multiple directions to signal corresponding movements.
Common in aviation, gaming, and industrial equipment: The crane operator switched to joystick control.
The term emphasizes the control scheme itself rather than the physical device.
