The XIM (Xbox Input Machine) is a console adapter from "XIM Technologies INC" that allows an Xbox 360 player to use a mouse, keyboard, joystick, or other peripheral as an input device.
Wiimote Mod
XIM started with the wii mote mod, which was a DIY (Do it Yourself) project posted by OBsIV in August for 2006
XIM
It started out as a small project in September of 2007by OBsIV who was disappointed with XFPS' performance. The XFPS was one of, if not the first adapter for the XBOX 360, that allowed you to use a keyboard and mouse in gaming. But the quality of the product was low and there was minimum performance increase. Because of this OBsIV started on a project to create the XIM. It started out as a device that had to be connected to your computer then to your XBOX360. Using the device this way, you were able to use anything that connected to your computer as a controller for your XBOX360.
XIM2 aka (XIM360)
The XIM2 was the first upgrade to the XIM. The main point of this upgrade was to go straight to the controller hardware without having to crack the console's security with input peripherals(which had to be done for the XIM). Not very much information was released about the hardware specific changes that were done.
XIM3
In November of 2009, OBsIV first announced he would be planning and working on a third generation of the XIM product called the XIM3. This product would be the first PC-less XIM product and would be, by far, the most advanced Xbox input adaptor available
All USB mice and keyboards are designed around a standard interface. Meaning, if your hardware isn't on this list, it doesn't mean it won't work. It just hasn't been tried.
