All that has been said is true but I have used this combination of osculator and pd, messages sent via OSC and midi using a number of gui objects and inputs from other devices simultaneously with no major latency problems. Am away from internet connection I can use to forward patches but can do so next Wednesday if you still need, using extended on mac os x 10.5

If you need this then you could display the data through GEM, which for some reason uses less processing power

Hey, nice thread, I just want to know if the Wii Motion Plus improves the sensing of the wiimote using it directly from pd, or if it just does it with the wii console.
Thanks.

I can check that monday within college, but there's a group of researchers there that I believe that use wiimote plus within their C++ apps, meaning it should be really givin an improved reading.
I'll check with them monday If I can, but probably more info on otheres of the list,
Best regards, Pedro p.s.: Arduino people are using it and talking about improvments in foruns ( http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1245723011, http://randomhacksofboredom.blogspot.com/2009/06/wii-motion-plus-arduino-lov...) so I guess your good to go.

it doesn't "improve" anything (this is just marketing speak from nintendo). it gives you another tuplet of sensors (gyros), which can be used to measure similar things as the standards accelerometers, and they allow you to measure rotation around the gravitation axis (which accelerometers cannot do)
you can use them in Pd (at least with the "wiimote" external) "just like" with the wii console.

Thanks for the links Pedro, I'll check them out. IOhannes, that was really the question, thanks for the info.
Best wishes, Ricardo.

Yeah, I made the same "verbal" mistake, to follow on the line of "Nintendo's marketing"... Thanks a lot for correcting us IOhannes.
The specs of the controller speak for itself, it has more rotation info due to a two axis gyro, that allows continoos stream of angles of rotation around the gravitational axis as already pointed out here (and its illustrated on one of the links I gave you - on an image with the roll/pitch/yaw arrows).
best regards, Pedro
