[PD] pd wii remote?
hi, has anyone recently set up a wii remote with pd on either mac os x or windoze (or both?) ? have been trying to find info on how this is done, but all i found is somewhat older, relates to apps that are no longer available, etc. any pointers would be greatly appreciated rene ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

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 process from 'pd'. So after a fair amount of discussion with Apple engineers, it seems that the only solution is to make a totally separate process (yes a process, not just a thread) which runs the CFRunLoop to poll the wiiremote. Then the Pd object will poll that process to get data from it. This is not simple, but doable, hence the delay. If only Nintendo had just made it a proper HID device, then it would 'just work' with [hid]. But they did something quite stupid, they make it show up as if it was a proper HID device, but then it sends custom, non-HID data packets. So the OS sees it as a HID device and associates with it, but then can't understand the data from it. That leaves the IOBluetooth API as only option, which is tied to Carbon CFRunLoops. The best solution would be if someone wrote a driver for it that translated the custom data packets into HID, then it would 'just work' with [hid]. Unfortunately, I am not a driver guy...

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 got the wii working with darwiiremoteOSC yet but seems pretty straight forward. i would agree it would be nice to have a pd external (aka.wiiremote) but for now these solutions seem adequateeh? i just got these two remotes in the mail from ebay yesterday so i have not messed with them too much other than making sure they worked... maybe it would be nice to have a wiki page or something will all wiimote related pd patches/vids/experiments/examples? ...lots of cool possibilities as a controller i see!!

Re: [PD] Wii remote controller and Mac OS X
I use a wiimote in Linux using the cwiid api http://abstrakraft.org/cwiid/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 can also access the ir camera. The wiimote itself determines the spots of light it sees and sends pixel postions aka (140, 100) relative to the resolution on the camera which is about 200x200 if i remember correctly. I have tested this with candles and you can mess with virtual sliders etc by pointing it at a ir source, if you remove the black plastic cover, then the camera pics up regular light sources such as incandescent blubs. And of course, you get all the button events. 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.

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 app, so I have to hack around in unusual ways to make this work. flext wouldn't help with that, unfortunately, AFAIK. .hc On Mar 7, 2008, at 12:54 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello .hc, Ok, I got the wiiremote connecting to Pd and I can get one data reading, so I am getting close.

I'm looking for an external allowing to interface a Wii remote controller with pd under Mac OS X (Intel). Is there any reliable way to do that? I have written a wiimote external for linux. Of course the easiest thing (and probably best too) is to use an existing library that supports the wiimote on your platform. I don't have a Mac, so I can't help you with that. But starting from that library, it cannot be very hard. You should be able to use my external as a starting point and rewrite the parts that need the wii library on your platform. If you do, it would be nice to keep in touch. It would be nice if the PD interface works the same way on both platforms. BTW. I'll put a 0.2 version of my library online next week. I'll have concert with some wii's at the end of the week and found a bit of room for improvement.

Currently, the latest revision from sourceforge (http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/externals/io/wiiremote/) seems to be broken (I got it from the logs). I'm looking for an external allowing to interface a Wii remote controller with pd under Mac OS X (Intel). Is there any reliable way to do that?

And if an external starts its own thread will it run on another core? Does in theory yes. any OS allow a programmer to control which processor the code runs on? e.g. linux? sched_setaffinity pthread_setaffinity_np (NPTL-pthreads) and i just found a linux-journal article: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6799 fgmasdr.

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/trunk/externals/io/wiiremote/) seems to be broken (I got it from the logs). I'm looking for an external allowing to interface a Wii remote controller with pd under Mac OS X (Intel). Is there any reliable way to do that? I have written a wiimote external for linux. Of course the easiest thing (and probably best too) is to use an existing library that supports the wiimote on your platform. I don't have a Mac, so I can't help you with that. But starting from that library, it cannot be very hard. You should be able to use my external as a starting point and rewrite the parts that need the wii library on your platform. If you do, it would be nice to keep in touch. It would be nice if the PD interface works the same way on both
[PD] wii remote on pd 0.40.2 library problem?
sorry for making this newby questions i want to use wiiremote that its include in pd 0.40.2 so i download Pd-0.40.2-extended-2007-05-29 i install it and also the org.puredata.pd.plist and in the pd window i get library messages like libdir_loader: added flatspace to the global classpath This is deprecated behavior. so wiiremote couldn't create so i guess that this is due to this library problem can someone help me? thanks___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] wii remote on pd 0.40.2 library problem?
That version is still quite rough. I don't know if anyone has gotten the Pd port of the Mac OS X wii object working. It loads but doesn't give data. I don't have access to a wii remote anymore. If someone gave me one, I would get it working. .hc On Jun 12, 2007, at 5:41 PM, ariel b wrote: sorry for making this newby questions i want to use wiiremote that its include in pd 0.40.2 so i download Pd-0.40.2-extended-2007-05-29 i install it and also the org.puredata.pd.plist and in the pd window i get library messages like libdir_loader: added flatspace to the global classpath This is deprecated behavior. so wiiremote couldn't create so i guess that this is due to this library problem can someone help me? thanks ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/ listinfo/pd-list As we enjoy great advantages from inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously. - Benjamin Franklin ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Oops, forgot to include the ever important init statement.

[PD] Wii remote
There is a max external for the Wii remote here http://www.iamas.ac.jp/~aka/max/#aka_wiiremote How big a job would it be to port it to PD - anyone up for it ? my coding skills are minimal.
