# Devices (scripting)
|
|
|
|
This section explains how to work with [`InputDevice`](xref:UnityEngine.InputSystem.InputDevice) instances from script.
|
|
|
|
If you only need to get a device reference and read control values, refer to [Read devices directly](read-devices-directly.md). For hardware support by platform, refer to [Supported devices reference](supported-devices-reference.md).
