WiiciToothLib

WiiciToothLib is a simple dynamic link library that has been developed to handle Wiimote to PC Bluetooth connectivity via the InTheHand.Net.Personal.dll avaliabe from inthehand.Com.

In essence WiiciToothLib is a wrapper for the InTheHand.Net.Personal.dll specifically designed with the Wiimote in mind.

Why Use WiiciToothLib

There is lots of Wiimote Assistive Technology development out there which is wonderful, however a common trend is the failure to include some means for handling one of the primary requirements, in respect to the target audience. Connecting the Wiimotes to the users system! Without this basic requirement, in context, all developed concepts are inherently flawed.

To combat this issue, WiiciToothLib has been developed to facilitate the connection requirements for the common system in use by the target demographic.

In addition, as the library has been developed in C# it can very easily be integrated into a range of .Net applications and frameworks such as Microsoft’s XNA etc. Also its a pain having to manually connect your Wiimotes each time you want to use them ;)

Where Can I Get WiiciToothLib

Version 1.1 of WiiciToothLib is available here. Included with the download is an example application file that demonstrates all the connection functionality that the library provides.

Is There Anything Else I Need

In order to use WiiciToothLib you will need to ensure that you have a copy of the InTheHand.Net.Personal.dll. Please be aware that as WiiciToothLib utilizes this library it is limited to some combination’s of Bluetooth radio and Stack.For more information please check out the relevant  InTheHand documentation.

A Bluetooth compatability test is included within the example application. Please check out the download for more information. Personally, I recommend us of the default Microsoft stack for optimal results.

A manual connection guide has also been produced and is available here. For a fully developed application that makes use of all WiiciToothLib’s functionality, check out Wiici Ct here.
