Connecting PS3 controller to arduino via bluetooth shield

Hello

I would like to connect my PS3 controller to arduino. I searched the internet and the only solutions are those that use one USB shield and one bluetooth dongle. Can i use one bluetooth shield instead that solution?

P.S Sorry for my bad english....

Thank you!

Yes you can, but you would need to install a Bluetooth Transmitter that is compatible with the Bluetooth Shield. Playstation has a different Bluetooth frequency than other Bluetooth shields.

What exactly is this for?

You could also connect the PS3 controller manually by wiring it in from the PS3 circuit board, but that includes taking apart the PS3 controller.
