The problem

PC Bluetooth and PlayStation DualSense controllers don’t get along. Players get random disconnects, lag spikes and re-pairing every other day — and over a PC’s Bluetooth, the controller’s haptics and adaptive triggers mostly go unused.

The answer was a small USB adapter that gives the controller a dedicated wireless link of its own, so the PC just sees a controller that works.

What we built

Every layer, in-house.

  • Firmware

    Built on open-source adapter firmware and hardened for real use: reliable pairing, clean recovery when a controller has been paired elsewhere, and updates that verify every file before installing.

  • Hardware & enclosure

    A compact case adapted for the board and printed in-house in PLA+, which is tougher and more heat-tolerant than standard PLA.

  • Windows app

    A lightweight companion app for testing rumble and triggers, tuning settings and installing firmware updates.

  • Brand & mascot

    The name, the identity and Blip, a pixel frog animated like an old game sprite — with trademark safety as a hard requirement from day one.

  • Website & checkout

    A fast storefront with setup guides and support pages, card checkout through Stripe, and a support inbox on its own domain.

  • Production & shipping

    Cases printed in batches, a one-click station that checks and flashes each unit, and a labels-to-doorstep shipping routine.

The result

Blipfrog is live and selling at blipfrog.com, with every unit built, tested and shipped in-house.

Everything on this page — the pairing work, the flashing station, the storefront — is something we can do for your product too.
