Hi everyone, I am planning to do a project using wiimote to create an interactive whiteboard with enhanced features. I have downloaded the initial source code from http://johnnylee.net/projects/wii/. But I want to modify the source code. Can anyone please suggest the best tool with which I can edit and compile the code?
Hi everyone, I tried running the java wiimote whiteboard and I get the error of “Not supported on winsock!!” I am using windows 7 64 bit, dell inspiron laptop.. Please help me…
I had the same trouble on my Macbook Pro runing 10.9.5 - wouldn’t recognize any of the three Wiimotes I’ve tried. Finally, I thought of seeing if the Mac would recognize the Wiimote at all as a bluetooth device. With Wiimote Whiteboard still open, I opened Bluetooth Preferences and it started searching for devices. As soon as my Mac found the Wiimote and recognized what it was, it popped up in Wiimote Whiteboard as it should have in the first place. I never connected through Bluetooth Preferences on the Mac, just through WW. I believe I’ve had to do this each time I’ve tried to use WW, but it’s worked fine after going through this process.
Is there a chance that this might work with the [current] Wii Remotes? I had to hack the WiiRemoteJ code to recognize the device string. But even after that, it simply hangs after a couple of lines:-(
The log when pressing the sync button on the back:

Any idea?
Hallo everybody. Same problem. After hours of researches, I discovered it can be related to WIDCOMM driver version. Version 6.x (actual version installed on Win7 and later) doesn’t work. Version 5.x seems to work but I didn’t find any installation package of this version. I’ve tried inside an Win XP virtual machine and it works great!!! Maybe this will be my workaround.
Cheers, Willy.

Hi,
I got it working on windows 7 64bit by opening the .jar file as a .zip file, deleting the 2.1.0 version of bluecove from lib/ , and adding this jar instead: http://snapshot.bluecove.org/distribution/download/2.1.1-SNAPSHOT/2.1.1-SNAPSHOT.63/
At least it starts up, I have yet to pair an actual wiimote :-)
I’ve the same reported problem with new Wii motionplus.

As nobody response, I can think that this project is abbandoned. we must discourage new users to try to buy hardware to use it, because is not supported, and never will be.
Does IRpensonline.com still work? The page seems very old and I am afraid of trying to buy, entering my card information and then not getting the IR pen….
Or, does anyone know any good places that are working and sell IR pens shipping internationally? I am located in Sweden….
Thanks
Hi Juan Rozo. You can easily find IR pens on eBay. I’ve bought mine there.
Cheers, Willy.
Hi Juan We sell in Europe, www.irpens.co

I’m having a really hard time connecting two wiimotes to my computer. I’m on a Mac running El Capitan. I am using the original Wiimote (not the TR version). I can pair one, but, unfortunately, one remote isn’t enough to adequately cover the size of the projected area. The connection closest to the remote is fine, but it quickly turns spotty the further away I get. I have done a lot of research on the subject and tried many things, but to no avail. I will admit that I am more on the intermediate side of computer knowledge.
Even just connecting one wiimote can be hard, as I have to delete my bluetooth plist after each time a wiimote connects or else it won’t connect again. My computer won’t let me completely delete the wiimote after each use from the bluetooth preferences bar without completely deleting the plist. I have read through a bunch of difference forums, including a bit of this one, but haven’t been able to find an answer.
I am an elementary teacher at a school with only projectors. I used to be at a school with 2 SmartBoards in each classroom. I would love to get this to work, so I can demo it for my staff. I would appreciate any help/advice. Thanks!
HELP! I’m using Windows 7, and a very cheap Bluetooth 2.1 dongle. When I try to connect the wiimote I get the error message “Wiimote failed to connect. Not supported on Winsock”. I’ve installed BlueSoleil demo, but I get the same message “… not supported on BlueSoleil”. How can I make it work on Windows 7? Do I need a special Bluetooth device / stack? Many thanks! Daniele
Hello there! I’m running OSX 10.11.5 El Capitan. I’ve downloaded “Mac application (OS 10.8 or later)” but it doesn’t work here. My java version is “Version 8 Update 91 released in 19/04/2016 ” and the message is: ““WiimoteWhiteboard.app” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should eject the disk image. “WiimoteWhiteboard.app” is on the disk image “WiimoteWhiteboard-10dot8_and_later.dmg”. Google Chrome.app downloaded this disk image today at 12:05 AM from www.uweschmidt.org.”
Do you guys have some idea? Have a great one!
Hello,
I’m running Mac OS X 10.11.5 on a macbook pro (retina, intel) and the Mac version of WiimoteWhiteboard. I can’t manage it to recognize my wiimote controller, even setting its mac adress in the .plist using the org.uweschmidt.wiimote.whiteboard.wiimoteAddresses key. the log says:
FINE 14:09:25 WiiRemoteJ: Found Nintendo RVL-CNT-01-TR (182A7BC7D51D)
FINE 14:09:25 WiiRemoteJ: Nintendo RVL-CNT-01-TR is NOT a known device.
Tried the java version but it ends up with a popup “The dialog is decorated” after a few seconds.
Unlucky ;-)
Does anyone managed to use wiimotewhiteboard on OS X - el capitan ?
