Wow, some people need to read up on basic physics. Yes, it sounds strange, but you are in fact resisting gravity. Sure, you have to accelerate to that rate from standing still, but that happens pretty quickly. To put it another way.. Inside that spaceship you would feel no gravity, and float around inside the ship. Yes, acceleration and gravity are indistinguishable from each other. It sounds strange, but go read some physics and learn about it.
I hope a physics major can come along and straighten this up more tidily. I thought this thing just took the positions of the IR leds and transcribed that into remote position.
Kinda like VR positional camera systems. I used to program VR stuff so I wonder if this would be similiar in anyway. Seems like a direct representation of those camera capturing systems used for virtual reality.
Sensors and reflection from IR leds and cameras to capture the positions. Just what it seemed to me from the beginning. Any links of open wiimotes?? Like to see the capturing device. I got the wiimote to work with the pc but where did that guy get the program that graphics the x,y,z axis? When you tilt it, the other axes will show nonzero acceleration values. Outside of any gravity field, all sensors will read zero.
I majored in Physics. When the Wiimote is lying flat on a table, two axes experience no force being applied. The third axis experiences the force of gravity which the device translates as acceleration. While lying still on the table, the object is not changing direction or speed, it is merely being acted upon by gravity. Of course speed is derived from the measurement of the separation of two locations distance divided by the time required to travel between those to locations.
Alternatively, force applied to an object can be measured and the mass of an object can be measured. So we take the force applied and divide by the mass of the object and get the amount of acceleration caused on the object. What does all this mean? It is perfect that it measures the gravity acceleration when standing still. Because it measures x,y and z axes. You can figure out the position of the device by looking at these values.
So the user can just tilt the device and the accellerations change on the axes. Check out my xmms wii control scripts on my page by the way. I just got a wii remote for christmas and after few hours it already controls my xmms mp3 player in ubuntu since I dont have a wii console to use it :. Same thing is happening here: when the wiimote stands still, it feels a downward force.
Unlike the Gyration mouse! It uses solid-state gyroscopes which they claim utilize the Coriolis effect why hurricanes have the directions they do. You just tilt your wrist and the cursor moves. I love it. Thus simultaneous events are not always simultaneous. Besides all humanity dying, the earth would obviously start going in a straight line tangent to its orbit.
But tangent at what point? The former is what Newtonian physics dictates, the latter is Eintsteinean. Newbs, STFU and learn physics. This means if you hold a Wiimote 1m above the ground, it will be traveling 9.
