Hello
As I'm on vacation i'm trying to hack with a Wiimote (with motion plus gyro
sensors), and I would like to do something similar to Skeye "pushto" for
android (google for it if you don't know what i'm talking about).
I already had some results:
- code here: https://github.com/rockman81/StellariumWiimotePlugin
- demo video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhVHJJaQ8Gs
However it still misses lots of stuff (for instance, equatorial mount
support and coordinates translation).
At the moment i'm using StelMovementMgr::panView to make stellarium follow
wiimote.
I was also trying moveToJ2000, translating AltAz coordinates with
StelCore::altAzToJ2000, but as these methods are not well documented i'm
stuck at understanding what paramters do they accept (Vector3, meaning Alt,
Az and....? also, it's radians? deg?)
I was also wandering if you have other more generic suggestions to make it
better.
For instance, i was also thinking about having instead a new Sky Object
"Wiimote"; moving the real wiimote will move the "virtual" wiimote on
stellarium. This way users can center it to follow its movements, or just
centering another object and seeing the wiimote getting closer to it for
aiming.
Problem is, i don't actually know where to start...
Thank you
Marco
