Thinkpad accelerometer games

What else could these motion sensor devices be used for? Like the motion sensor on the Wii, to play games of course! You might have to play around with the Active Protection System Properties to get the right calibration and sensitivity for playing, but it works and is very easy to get running!

Unfortunately using the accelerometer in a Mac is not so simple, the interface to the chip Apple uses is not public. Amit Singh, writer of the book Mac OS X Internals , has demonstrated the Motion Sensor can be used for gaming though and has an extensive website covering his research on this at KernelThread.

Your name or email address: Do you already have an account? No, create an account now. I know that accel data is present in 2. It would also be cool to get this working on powerbooks and what's really cool is that I guess they have a 3rd axis. You can check it out at sourceforge. I'll be integrating with the included space invaders code , and perhaps JInput, in the coming weeks. No comments:. Newer Post Older Post Home.
