[PD] wiimote for macosx

[Mike Wozniewski]

Hi Steffen,

If you're referring to the [wiimote] object that I wrote 
(http://mikewoz.com/index.php?page=pd-stuff), then it's not possible, 
because the library it uses is Linux-only. At that time, there were no 
cross-platform libraries for the wii controller, so I chose a Linux 
library and developed an external to interface with it. There were 
already solutions for Windows (using GlovePIE) and for OSX (using 
aka.wiiremote), so I didn't bother with that.

I see that aka.wiiremote 
(http://www.iamas.ac.jp/%7Eaka/max/#aka_wiiremote) is for Max/MSP only, 
but I'm sure someone could port that to Pd quite easily. I guess that's 
what Hans was trying in Zaragoza? (as mentioned below).
 
Otherwise, I'd suggest that you try Darwiinmote 
(http://blog.hiroaki.jp/2006/12/000433.html), which can emulate keyboard 
and mouse events. You can then use Pd to capture and process those events.

I hope this helps,
-Mike
