- A friend and myself are attempting to hack the Mattel (c) PowerGlove.
-
- I have some example code I got from the glove-list, but it's awful and
- only detects finger movements. The coords leave a LOT to be desired.
- On top of all that, it uses the CIA resource and doesn't even close it
- correctly!
-
- If ANYONE has ANYTHING like TECH SPECS on it; something that describes
- the data packet coming out of it PLEASE e-mail me! I want to encode it
- into a shared library for other programmers to use.
-
- Sure, I could by the book, "COMPUTE's Mapping the PowerGlove" but, hey,
- that's not quite /possible./ :-)
-
- Thanks a lot--if I am able to work it into a shared library, it would be
- PD ...
