Wiimote accelerometer & motions detecting projects / Re: Accelerometer study
« on: May 24, 2009, 05:33:02 AM »
Hi everyone,

I has some acceleration values on each axis of the Wiimote remote.
I'd like to do a double integration in order to have position. For instance, I used the trapezoidal rule but I have weird values of velocity. How can I solve that?

Here are my values (it's a linear motion on the Z axis) acceleration values are in "g", Y axis is upward, Z axis is forward, X axis is on  the right

Wiimote accelerometer & motions detecting projects / Re: Accelerometer study
« on: March 08, 2009, 08:34:43 AM »
well, now I'm lost since i don't find a way to study the Wiimote. The thing is i have to find a purpose, a probem related to the wiimote and that i can solve. Do you have any idea?

Hi,

I have emailed Carl Kenner, creator of GlovePIE and he said:

"I tried integrating the acceleration to get velocity and position, butit really doesn't work. The main problem is that you don't know thereal acceleration, because it measures both gravity and accelerationat the same time and it is impossible to separate them exactly. So theacceleration will always be a bit wrong. So the velocity will quicklyget more and more wrong."

I'm in panic because it seems it's impossible to get positions. Do I have to change my way to study the Wiimote?

Yeah, I know but the problem is that all Websites say that the axis of the wiimote are like here:
http://yg.typepad.com/majorstudio2/Wiimote_axes-1.png

and with my script, GlovePIE says that the 1g from earth's gravitational pull is in the Y axis and not in the Z axis (my wiimote is on the table, on the back)

Ok I will try to be clear (remember I'm French  :D)

So my idea is to attach the wiimote to a chariot which has one direction and all we know is the theoritical acceleration. Then I would like to get the signals given by the wiimote and "rebuilt" the trajectory by integrating the measures.
But I have big difficulties (I use GlovePIE so as to have measures):

1) Do I have to know something about the calibration of the Wiimote? Because when I put the wiimote on the back, GlovePIE measure +1g on the Y axis whereas it should be -1g on the Z axis, isn't it? (I used this script:

var.t=time*86400

OutputToFile(RemoveUnits(var.t)+","+Wiimote.gx + ", " + Wiimote.gy + ", " + Wiimote.gz)

debug = var.t+', '+wiimote.gx+', '+wiimote.gy+', '+wiimote.gz


2) Once I have the measures, what should I do next? I would like to treat the signals but I don't know how to do that, what software should I use...

Thanks

Thanks Ben.

I have reoriented my project. My objective is:
"reconstruction of a trajectory thanks to acceleration measures" that is to say I would like to see if the Wiimote is a good device so as to recreate a mouvement. But the thing is I don't which software I can use in order to do that.

Could you give me some advice?

Hi everyone.

I would like to know something. What is the type of accelerometer inside the Wiimote? (capacitive? piezoelectric? or other?...) Because I have read many topics on the web and it's very contradictory.

Thanks.

Hi,

what is the reverse engineer site? (I'm sorry I'm french and I don't know what is a reverse site).

Hi everyone,

Do you know a Website which explains how the Wiimote and the accelerometer work? (for a theoritical approach)

Thanks

Manual Accleration techniques.

Is it the datasheet given by analog device? here: http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/ADXL330.pdf
If it's not, where can I find it?

The toy car is a good idea, but how do we know that the acceleration of the toy is the maximal acceleration?
For the frequential response, a friend said that it would be great if I attach the controler on a vibrating table (with vibrations generated by a little engine). Can I have the frequential response with GlovePIE? or is there another software?

Thank you for the links.
I've already read the first link. I' trying to understand the second and third links.
Here is my plan for now on (excuse me, my English is very approximate):

I'd like to make a comparison between information given by Nintendo about the performance of the Wiimote (maximal acceleration, detection speed, detection precision, resonance, frequential response) and the results of experiments.

I don't know where to start. Have you any advice? (about software, theoretical part, experiment)

Hi everyone,

I'm a french student and in order to take an exam in April, I'm  working on the "TIPE", a kind of very little thesis. I've chosen to study the Wiimote controler and its accelerometer. This study is divided into two part: a theoritical part, and a second part which concentrate on experiments. I'm just 17 and I'm not specialized in programming. That's why I'm trying to look for a simple approach of this study.

I have some acceleration measurement with the software GlovePIE. But it's not enough for the study. I'm planning to make vibratory measurement.

Do you know any websites or links which can give me some information about the Wiimote, or experiment using this controler?

Have you any idea about an experiment?

Thank You.
