I don't have access to a wii (or a wiimote for that matter) but I've been reading up on how the wiimote works. One idea that came to mind is trying to emulate the wiimote to figure out how to control it.
By using a "soft-hid" approach such as used by a keyboard emulator for the n770 (http://www.mulliner.org/bluetooth/xkbdbthid.php) one could make a computer emulating a wiimote connect to the wii.
It should be possible even to have the computer function as a pipe in between the weemote and the wii. By capturing the commands sent and then resend them to the wiimote, recording the answers of the wiimote and forwarding them back to the wii, the whole communications sequence could be recorded.
This would probably make it possible to discover how to read the image sensors work, and how to have the remote play sounds (my theory is that the sound is first loaded in to the remote's memory, and then a command triggers the playing). |
