YEI Sensor Mouse HID
Posted: Tue Jan 21, 2014 11:11 am
Hey all,
I finally received a YEI sensor the other day and have been trying to get it working as a full 360 degree pointing device for independent weapon tracking. I realize there is a freepie thread going on in the forums already, but since firmware versions and suite changes have now changed from the YEI end, I believe that most of the code is now defunct? I wanted to see if anyone else has had any experiences recently implementing the YEI tracker without using FreePie.
The suite now includes a Mouse HID/Joystick HID function which seems to work pretty well -- the only caveat being that once you look away from your initial tare position (such as when you have a oculus or other HMD on) the mouse jumps very sporadically. YEI support has stated that you need 2 trackers or to have a full 360 degree pointing device (2nd tracker attached to head or chest).
Has anyone had any luck doing this with only one sensor? I feel like there has to be a way to implement a 360 degree tracker around one of the 3 axis(s) with the other two being your up/down movement on the screen. So far I love the dang thing, and ive found more uses for it than I initially intended to
