Improvements
Thank you for your suggestions, Carlington.
A window such as described above which would show exactly what the IR-camera sees (this would help the placement effort)
Done, will be included in the next release.
A mouse-movement smoothing option, essentially this would interpolate between the actual locations and not move to any given mouse-location directly. This would help to create more flow in Illustration applications.
This is a good idea but I don’t think there is a single best way to do it though. I’ll add this feature with the option to select a “mouse smoothing strategy”. The user may thus be able to choose among various “strategies” (where “no smoothing” will be one of them) which can be extended in the future.
A tripod is suggested for the final placement of the Wiimote, make sure that any movement cause minimal disturbance/vibration to the Wiimote.
I actually own a kind of small flexible tripod called Gorillapod. This in combination with the Wiimote could be a cheaper and more flexible alternative to a big and heavy tripod. I just see they have the model Go-Go that can be used with a suction-cup clip or high-bond adhesive clip to attach the Wiimote. This is just an idea which I haven’t tested.
