iPhone WiiMote OpenGL-ES Demo

The video first shows the iPhone's AirPlane mode activated before starting an OpenGL-ES Demo. In the demo, the orientation of the virtual WiiMote is controlled by a physical WiiMote over a Bluetooth connection. For this demo, the the portable Bluetooth Stack from the BTstack project (http://code.google.com/p/btstack) was used.

The OpenGL-ES code was based on the excellent tutorial by Simon Maurice ( http://web.me.com/smaurice/AppleCoder/iPhone_OpenGL/Entries/2009/4/1_OpenGL_E... ). Thanks, this is my first OpenGL program.

I'd like to interface the Wiimote to an avr using a BTM-222 chip, do you think it's doable?

[mringwal]

@mog123noblog sorry that"s not possible. BTM-222 uses RFCOMM, WiiMote requires an L2CAP connection to implement HID profile.

the tutorial by simon maurice seems to be down... do you know where I can find it?

[mringwal]

@greatrat00 sorry to hear that. if you find it, please post here so I can update the video description.

I can only tilt the virtual Wiimote side to side and not up and down like in the video, Mattias.

see Comment 3 months ago: The demo corresponds to Part 2 of this video. In the first video the rotation is +/- 90 degrees. If turned more it is not correct. I wanted a complete rotation but could not get two axis correctly. If someone has equations for the 2-axis turn, I'll fix it. The ones on the Wiili and Wiibrew are not correct.

Can you share your source? I'd love to build on this!

[joedajoester]

I got it but it only rotates sideways not up and down why?

HOW COME UR IN AIRPLANE MODE AND THERE'S NO BLUETOOTH ICON????

[fizzlefofizzle]

I want to know how to use my iphone as the controller for the wii

[bwillwall]

I developer should make something like this for 2 player tilt games on 1 device

[skateridis]

cool :D

[Pacess]

Really COOL~

Could you please tell me the related URL about BlueTooth connection? Thanks!

Amazing

SO, do you any solution to interface a WiiMote or a PS3 controller to a ATmega?
