UserInputService This is a roblox game service used to detect client/player's available input types which can be retrieved by GetService() function
Example Basic Code:
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local GS = game:GetService("GuiService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
if GS:IsTenFootInterface() then
warn("Player on XBOX!")
elseif UIS.TouchEnabled and UIS.KeyboardEnabled == false then
warn("Player on MOBILE!")
elseif UIS.TouchEnabled == false and UIS.KeyboardEnabled then
warn("Player on PC")
end
More Information about UserInputService:

You can also use remotes to acheieve this, by checking if there is anything touching that part the HumanoidRootPart and then fire that players RootPart in a server script and pick it up on the client and check if the player is there and print the players name or do stuff wtih that players humanoid root part, you can use UIS too.
