Connecting to a Remote Control #268

Open emolyzr opened 6 years ago

emolyzr commented 6 years ago

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone had tried to connect a remote control (IR or bluetooth) to LSL? May this works with the Windows Game Controller APP? Has anyone experience on that? I use a an IR CyberLink remote control, but that is not recognized by the GameController App...

Best, Johannes

The wiimote has been implemented. It could be that you can somehow convince Windows that it is a joystick, in which case the Game Controller App should pick it up, but I that's kind of a long shot. Does the device have an SDK?

Thanks for your answer. I already tried to connect to the game controller app, but it didn't work. I am not sticked to a particular device. What I want to achieve is the following: Connect a remote control to LSL. Press the play button to start a video on TV. The button press indicates the stimulus onset, which is used as marker for my biosignals (EEG).

Can you use a python based media player or perhaps PsychPhsyicsToolbox to display the video? Then you could use the wiimote to start the recording and simultaneously emit a marker via LSL. Better still, you could have the display program emit  an LSL message when the video actually plays (as opposed to when the play button is pressed).
