Wireless controller battery indicator

[joestrong]

Is there currently any way to see the battery status of a wireless controller?

I'm currently using a PS3 controller over bluetooth, and when the controller battery runs out it will disconnect without prior warning.

Is there any project working on anything like this?

Thanks

Doesn't the PS3 controller start flashing a red light a couple of times like every 30 seconds warning you that your batteries are low? My Xbox 360 controller does something like that and I believe the Logitech ones do this as well.

@joestrong as the man above me stated. And when it blinks it shows 1-4 lights at once. The less lights you see the less battery power you have. You can see this when you turn on your controller on as well
