[dorkbotbmore-blabber] Using nunchuck

[lesliebradley at comcast.net]

This is my first attempt to post something to the site.  Hope I'm doing it correctly.  Les Bradley 





In response to Adam: 




I just bought a nunchuck, based on a tip from a person at the recent robotfest, to gain access to some accelerometers. 




I thought I had the magic screwdriver bit to open the nunchuck, but no.  So, I'll obtain a driver so I can look inside.  But, I would love to know how you are interfacing nunchuck with Arduino.  Maybe I don't need to take the device apart! 




I do not have a wii or any software that would work.  I can take a look at the processing.org site you cite.  An engineer friend told me he came across a site that had complete schematics for the wii; he's trying to recall where he saw them. 




Please do bring your setup to the next meeting.  Obviously, I'm most interested in working with the output of the accelerometers; using the nunchuck's other controls would be a plus, too. 




I'm not a programmer, but I can probably adapt a Squeak, Smalltalk, or similar file to do some different things.  I've just begun studying Squeak.
