As title says,

Is there a way to detect the TYPE of gamepad that is connected? I want the UI of my game to show the correct buttons. Did a bit of searching around and couldn't find much.

The problem is that you can't count on that. Windows (for example) will send whatever description it feels like. Playstation controllers show up in my game as "wireless controller."
