Title: connection help
Post by: LordRahl on September 26, 2009, 08:05:40 AM

i work at a visulisation compony and i would like to make the wiimote accesible for all my colleges

I have a xps 1730 with Dell Wireless 355 Module with Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR technology. I have a tutorial to make a dll for a 3D program so that i can use the controler but my pc does not appear to see my wiimote.

is this a problem with my internall bluetooth card, is an external one better and so witch one will work on vista and XP?

Also is there an aplication that i can use to just see or my pc can see my wiimote?

Check out Smoothboard.net .  It has Smooth connect for automatic syncing.

extra question if the external stick is from a bluetooth provider that gives acces to there SDK is it possible to code a connection in C++ ?

a standard protocol so that it is dummy proof for other users?

Wich blutooth chip would the forum group recommend and with the demand that it is external??
