..
Anybody interested? (This might be something I could tinker with over the Xmas break but I'd be starting at square 1 so far Maemo development goes. Otherwise I'd love to test.)
I am definitely interested Unfortunately, my N800 broke down last Oct and N810 is still in transit.

Are you still interested in the Wiimote?

Sounds like Neverball/Neverputt. I like the idea : )

hi

i am trying to draw a picture on the sketch programme on a tablet. I will install the things in this thread and have a go but just wondered if you have any advice.

thanks

Can pywiiaxel display the graphs of all three axes at the same time? (well not afaict), but would be good if it could.

It shows only one graph at a time, but it will log it into a file. Take the version from svn. Had a lot of changes for me last year, has been shifting base to US , just settling in now, and so have neglected the project, but will be happy to update it.

Seems like there has been a lot of interest in this, without place to apply it.

I just back from disney world, and my son observed that it would be neat if we could have used a wiimote to collect motion data on the rides that are indoors, such as space mountain. A quick search of the site found this. It would be easy enough to carry the n800/810 along with a wiimote in a backpack onto the ride. Some numerical integration of the data would potentially reveal the path/speed of the ride.

Thoughts?

I believe the accelerometer in Wiimotes has some sort of dumb restriction, like 5 MPH, which they don't register above
