How It All Started

While the ProSteer has been developed in Brisbane, Australia - Boxdark's development has been uncompromising, taking the ProSteer team to North America, Europe & Asia.

Born from simple sketches then on to geometric formulae and ergonomic design.

We have created a whole new species of game controllers. Our R&D spans three continents and over 5 years. BoxDark is focussed on fine tuning our technologies to harness their many control advantages. Our patented Boxed Arc and Multi Single Axis Control (MSAC) technologies provide breakthrough control advantages for gamers in racing and first person shooter games.

Our team have completed the complex job of calculating everything from the degrees of turn, turn compression, button position and compression to firmware and finally great device design to maximise functionality and user comfort.
