PS5 DualSense Controller — 20261014

The second generation of the locally drawn SVG: the LLM authored and revised the markup itself, guided by a vision-model critique loop rendered through a headless browser.

Detailed SVG illustration of a white PS5 DualSense controller with blue LED light bar, four-piece D-pad, engraved face buttons, adaptive triggers and dual analog sticks

Generation Record

Creation date: 2026-10-14 01:28 CEST
Time used: ~1 hour 15 minutes (multi-pass: generate → render → vision critique → patch, repeated)
Model: Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (Uncensored), Q8_0
Inference engine: Strata v0.1.43.1, MTP4 speculative decoding, 262K context
Hardware: Linux AI server, 2× AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 (gfx1201), ROCm

What's in the drawing

Body & grips — correct DualSense silhouette with flared grips, two-tone white shell with gradient shading, outer-edge contour shading and inner highlights
Adaptive triggers (L2/R2) and bumpers (L1/R1) peeking above the top edge, with seam lines
Trapezoid touchpad flush with the top contour, blue LED light pipe along its seams
Angled Create / Options pill buttons flanking the touchpad
D-pad built as four separate directional buttons, matching the real hardware
Face buttons — dark translucent caps with engraved grey Triangle / Circle / Cross / Square glyphs, as on the actual DualSense
Dual analog sticks in recessed dark wells with concave dish tops
Speaker grille, PS button with PlayStation family logo, mic mute pill with blue LED ring and mic icon
Bottom edge: 3.5 mm jack, gold charging contacts, USB-C port shading

How it was made

The previous single-pass version was critiqued by a vision model from a headless-browser render; its flaws (missing grips, inverted color zoning, connected cross D-pad, floating touchpad) drove the new layout.
Each revision was rasterized to PNG, re-critiqued, and patched — zoomed crops verified the D-pad, face buttons, PS logo and mic button pixel by pixel.
The local LLM also generated a full competing SVG from a detailed spec; the hand-refined version won the visual comparison and kept the model's four-piece D-pad construction.

The file is pure hand-authored SVG (25 KB, XML-validated) and scales cleanly at any resolution — open it in any browser or vector editor. The first version remains at /ai/ps5-controller.html.
