Is it possible to connect another Android device as a gamepad emulator?

Keeperus

There are such an Android apps like DroidMote or Gamepad.
Can we connect to OUYA with such an apps.
Got an OUYA launcher on my Acer Iconia Tab A700.
And HTC Desire S which is going to be connected as a gamepad.
Will test it at home.
Any other suggestions?

Which signals should I send? "O" or "BUTTON_O"?

I've found an application called "BTController".
Seems to be easy configurable(create layers and set keycodes for them).
And DroidMote is pretty easy to configure(change emulated signals for keycodes).
But still need to know what to use.
Testing my app without a working gamepad was pretty bad.
Had to write an onscreen emulation for every button (dispatchKeyEvent...).
Even created a widget for OUYA buttons.

DroidMote simulate a real hardware controller at kernel level. All that can do an hardware controller, can do DroidMote. You can use and customize 6 different axis and 16 buttons.

You can use also an hardware controller attached to your phone and DroidMote Client forward to DroidMote Server all the commands of this hardware controller.

You can do all with DroidMote but you need root permissions to install the Server.

Look DroidMote youtube playlist to understand all.

Note that, at least with the dev kits, OUYA doesn't seem to support any Android app that requires root access.  They implemented root access a different way.

That's just for now.
As I said:

But still need to know which codes should I set for buttons.

Now that you can root and install Busybox on Ouya and specially you can install Google Play store, you can run also DroidMote Server on OUYA.
