iWatch | PlayStation Move Vs Calibration

http://www.iwaggle3d.com

Following my "Calibrating Hues: How the PlayStation Move knows where it is" article posted on iWaggle3D about a week ago (http://bit.ly/a6KWB8), here his the promised iWatch version of it, describing the inner workings of the PlayStation Move relative to the device start-up calibration process.

If you haven't read the above mentioned article, this is your chance to get up to speed with PlayStation Move knowledge. If you have, you might want to check this video regardless as you'll find some extra bits of information in it (i.e. the "Shadow hack"!)

Enjoy!

im really having some problems with ''sport champions'' since i cant even update it since it just makes me wait for more than 30 min on ''please wait'' and the ps3 gets hot as fudge... and when i try to calibrate it it just stands there and sais its calibrating but nothing is happening.... -___________- why the fuck did i pay 300$ on this since i cant even play a singe game with it!?!??!

@littlebuch Sounds like your PS3 ain't working properly.

[littlebuch]

@Waggle3D no, my ps3 is working great but i havent played for a week or so cuz i was in paris.... and when i came back i tried it but nothing connected with the move worked... other than the calibration thing in the XMB menu... and i dont really know how to calibrate it.... its like vibrating but my cam is under the tv and not over... i will try it with all light turned off or something like that and i may put it on my tv...

[Waggle3D]

@littlebuch Do you have other games to try with it? Or just Sports Champions? Can you navigate the XMB with it (holding down trigger while swinging left and right)?

[littlebuch]

@Waggle3D yeah dude like everything worked except the cam... like i have one of those GH 5 guitar usb ''splitters'' (idk how they are called basically the thing that you plug in the usb and it has 2 more usb-s) and i had connected the cam to it and today i was like let me test the cam and it didnt even show up as if it wasnt logged in... and i had to plug it directly to the PS3 cuz the "splitter" has like 1/4 of the speed... and then everything worked out great! I LOVE THE MOVE! ITS SO AWESOME!

@littlebuch Glad to hear you found out what the issue was :) Enjoy your Move! :)

Added English subtitles to the video to cope with the low volume of my commentary. :)

Thank you for clarifying all this for us!

@dessertmonkeyjk If you are referring to the magnetic sensor calibration, that's a different thing compared to your usual in-game calibration. Think the reason why there is no "good for all" XMB calibration is because every game needs it's own process (ie The Fight calibration is different from KZ3 one) and also the system couldn't know if something has changed in the set up (moved the sofa further, bought a bigger tv, and more importantly, different light/users) so the need to do it every time
