Development of unusual ways of driving Dasher
Mac Powerbook users can drive Dasher using its tilt sensors. (Can a Dasher user write a webpage giving details and evaluating this option, and let us know?)
(As of Thu 24/3/05, ams2hid is not open source.)
Suggestion by Seb Wills 24/3/2005
Something similar could be done with PDAs/phones which don't have tilt sensors but do have cameras, by using the change in view from the camera to detect tilting.
Cool idea!
Can someone implement this image-based approach in an open source solution?
