InfraRed Gamepad

Right. You would have to have low-level access to the IR hardware, so you could determine that IR was pulsed on for n milliseconds, and off for n milliseconds. You could then translate those pulses into the various gamepad buttons.<br><br>Dan East

Can this type of low level montering be done in evc++ or evb? Or is this something i will have to do in asm?<br><br>Im just curious about evb becuase i wanted to right a verion in both evc and evb for learning puposes.

[Dan East]

You can do that with C++, assuming you can access the hardware in that way in the first place. The implementation may be hardware-specific.<br><br>Dan East

Hmmm what do you mean that the implementation may be hardware specific? HEy thanks for helpingg me out too.

[Dan East]

If you directly access the hardware (ie, read the memory locations mapped to the hardware I/O) then that will most likely be device-specific.<br><br>Dan East

Does the eVC++ help file list functions to do this somewhere? I dont see why it may be impossible im thinkin all i gotta do is monitor the gamepad pulsing and then write routines to match up the diffrent pules to a specific button on the gamepad.

[Dan East]

Nope. That info can be very difficult to determine. I have no idea how to go about finding that, besides searching the OEM's site and the web.<br><br>Dan East
