Using Playstation controllers in LabView 8.5

I am trying to complete a project for a class where I simulate the game, Rock Band through a LabView interface. I am having trouble accessing the USB-controlled gaming instruments from LabView. They are working on the PC (tested them with Game Controllers application) but I don't know how to interface them with LabView. Could you refer me to literature or specific drivers that I will need for this? Sample VI's would also be very very helpful.

 

Thank you.

You could try the Basic Input Demo.vi that can be found in the Example Finder to see if the playstation can interact as a joystick; I haven't done interfacing with a playstation joystick, so not sure if this would work.
