Could you build this?

Partial Basic HID-level remapping of a Bluetooth DualSense into a virtual Xbox controller via a driver like ViGEm is achievable with vibe coding. Full HD haptics and adaptive trigger support depend on undocumented or hard-to-handle protocol details and audio streaming to the device.

What it would actually take: Use a virtual gamepad driver (ViGEmBus) and HID input parsing for the basics. Haptics and adaptive triggers need reverse-engineered Bluetooth output reports or audio-based haptic streams, plus a driver-level component that is signed for Windows. This requires HID/USB driver and protocol reverse-engineering experience.
