It is supposed to give transposition and rotation in XYZ, hence SIXAXIS. That's the hope at least. .hc On Mar 21, 2008, at 3:59 PM, Mike McGonagle wrote: Hans, do you know how many "control" signals this will produce? From what I read in the literature, it sounds like it also has motio

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

Hey, With the SIXAXIS, I am not getting anything but standard messages. How did you do the pairing? Is the Guitar Hero controller also a Bluetooth device? As far as I can tell with the SIXAXIS, the bluetooth stuff doesn't really work, I am only using the USB connection. I can't get it

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

Oops, I should be a little more specific ... what I described was my experience with the Guitar Hero controller, which as far as I can tell is just a repackaged SIXAXIS controller that sends a different device ID. It may be slightly different for the regular SIXAXIS controllers, but use [print] and

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

I hooked up a [print] to the [hid] object's first outlet. If you do that you should see a constant stream of messages that look like this: ... 0x002c 561 0x002d 593 0x002e 512 ... 0x002c, 0x002d and 0x002e identify the X, Y and Z messages, and the numbers after them are the values. I was expecting

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

Hmm, so I installed that driver, and now I get the standard gamepad data from the device. Are you able to get the six-axis accelerometer data from the device? that's the real fun stuff. .hc On Mar 21, 2008, at 5:05 PM, Andrew Turley wrote: > For the record, the SIXAXIS controller works we

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

IIRC, I think there is a linux driver for the wiimote that makes it act like a HID, and therefore could be used with [hid]. .hc On Mar 21, 2008, at 5:26 PM, Daniel Wilcox wrote: I use a wiimote in Linux using the cwiid api in my device daemon that grabs joystick and wiimote events and sli

Awesome, thanks! I will try this tonight. Sounds already much better than the wiimote. .hc On Mar 21, 2008, at 5:05 PM, Andrew Turley wrote: > For the record, the SIXAXIS controller works well in Mac OS X with > this driver: > > http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Ps3Controller >

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

I use a wiimote in Linux using the cwiid api in my device daemon that grabs joystick and wiimote events and slings them over OSC to pd. The wiimote has a 3 axis acceleramator and sends the x, y, z positions and you can easily calculate mean acc, roll, and pitch. You

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

For the record, the SIXAXIS controller works well in Mac OS X with this driver: http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Ps3Controller I've used that for the Guitar Hero controller. Using the [hid] object I get 3 continuous values from the XYZ sensors. andy On Fri, Mar 21, 2008 at 12:59 PM,

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

Hans, do you know how many "control" signals this will produce? From what I read in the literature, it sounds like it also has motion controls. Does that mean that it has XYZ sensors? Or does it also have the pitch and yaw sensors as well? It sounds like a Wii has XYZ and pitch and yaw... Mike On

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

I just got a Sony SIXAXIS, I am hoping it is easier to use than the WiiRemote. There seems to be more good lowlevel code available for it, anyway. http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/About/WirelessController http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Accessories/SCPH-98040 .hc On Mar 21, 2008, at 1:0

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

hi Luigi, thanks for the tip on OSculator. im just looking at it now. you have it communicating with pd? i just tried it out with nodebox real quick and seems to works fine... i also go the wiitar connecting to pd with a 3rd party app called "wiitar"... that works fairly decent too! i haven't go

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

It turns out it's not an easy thing. In order to poll the wiimote you need to use a Carbon CFRunLoop. Since Max/MSP is a Carbon app natively, the aka.wiiremote object can just tag onto the built-in CFRunLoop to get events. Pd's Tcl/Tk process is a Carbon app, but that's a separate proc

How is the Progress with the wiiremote external ??? (especially Mac- Intel) I have played around with OSculator and its really working fine. Anybody else playing around with the Wii ??? Happy Easter Luigi >---< Luigi Rensinghoff [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

This is a port of aka.wiiremote, yup. The Max and Pd APIs are so similar, you usually don't need flext to make it work for both. The problem here is that Max/MSP is a Carbon app and the pd process is not (Tcl/Tk Wish.app is). The IOBluetooth framework is designed to be used in a Carbon

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X

This seems like it could be promising http://www.osculator.net/wiki/ Not an external for pd, but does send over osc so could use the osc libraries in pd to digest. I havnt' tried it yet so let me know if you get it to work. Nils Stefano Papetti wrote: > Hello everybody, > > when I last check

Hello everybody, when I last checked the mailing list (about 1 year ago...) I remember there was a wiiremote external by Hans-Christoph Steiner. However at that time I couldn't get it to work. Currently, the latest revision from sourceforge (http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data
