Using the WiiMote with NodeBox

Posted by fdb on Feb 15, 2008

A small example that shows how to communicate between the WiiMote and NodeBox. Communication happens over OSC, through a program called OSCulator.

Source code is available, so let me know if you do something fun with this! A library is forthcoming.

There's now a full WiiMote library for NodeBox:

That's great, but is there support for the nunchucks?

Hi fdb, I'm trying to use wiidraw following all your instructions, but it gives me that error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "nodebox/gui/mac/__init__.pyo", line 358, in _execScript
File "/Users/sebas/Desktop/wiidraw/wiidraw.py", line 4, in
ImportError: cannot import name oscAPI

Do you know what is happening? I can't wait to use this great union between nodebox and wiimote! Thanks a lot!

The oscAPI.py file is in a folder "osc", which should be in the same folder as your wiidraw.py file.

Anyway, you should check out the WiiNode library, which obsoletes the wiidraw code, and includes the drawing example as well.

Kind regards,

Frederik
