Game While You Run.
Feel Every Step.
TraceGrip is the ultimate split controller for gaming on a treadmill. Walk, jog, or run — your movement drives your character forward. Tilt to look around. Squeeze to shoot. Stay active while you play.
Intuitive Motion Controls
Four core input methods that turn your body into the controller. No learning curve — just natural movement.
Walk to Move
Step onto your treadmill and start walking — or running. TraceGrip detects your arm swing and pace, translating every stride into fluid in-game movement. The faster you move, the faster your character moves.
Tilt to Steer
Rotate and tilt the controller to look around. Your wrist becomes the camera — smooth, precise, and intuitive.
Analog Squeeze
Pressure-sensitive grips detect how hard you squeeze. A gentle press for a light action, a full grip for maximum intensity.
Cross-Hand Combos
Combine inputs across both hands for layered control. Squeeze one grip while pressing a button on the other for new actions.
How It Works
Three simple steps from pickup to play. TraceGrip connects as a standard Bluetooth gamepad — no drivers needed.
Hold
Grab a unit in each hand. The split design lets you rest your arms naturally at your sides.
Move
Step on your treadmill and start moving. Walk, jog, or run — TraceGrip tracks your arm swing and translates it into in-game movement. Tilt the right unit to look around. Squeeze to interact.
Play
Your movements translate instantly into game input. No latency, no lag — just immersion.
