Scratch

hm, yeah, put it in sensor boards. however, I don't think connecting an accelerometer directly to the crocodile clips will work, I think they require external power. I was going to try that myself, but couldn't find any cheap ones. I would love to hear from you if you get it to work.

If you have any knowledge with Python (a programming language) you can actually connect a wiimote with two accelerometers inside to the computer via bluetooth, then use Python to set X and Y varaibles for Scratch to read using Scratch's enable remote sensor connections. That might be a bit tricky though.

hope you get it fixed, it sounds like a neat project.

oh, one other thing I have tried with my picoboard is to open up an old playstation controller and solder some connections to the potentiometers around the joysticks, you can then controll a player in a game with the modified joystick controller, it's great fun!

you can just click report next to any post, and in the box that comes up, type "please move this topic to sensor boards" it will be sent to moderators and they will move it for you.
