Hand Held Controller Recommendations
-
I'm looking for a device that I can hold in my hand wirelessly and have it's position be tracked across a screen (ideally three displays). This device would act like a mouse that can be visibly seen and click on items on the screen. Are there any devices I should look at? Or controllers I can use to make my own and 3D print a case for?
Thanks in advance. -
@princecarlosthe5 ive achieved this kind of thing with nintendo joycon controllers, but you can do it quite easily with an iphone or android phone using applications like gyrOSC or DATAosc.
You can use Chataigne (osc timeline PC/Mac/linux application) to get joycon data natively out to OSC messages which can then be ingested by isadora

I miss the Osculator ! simple and easy to use. Do you know if something similar exists? beside Chataigne wich looks a differnt concept...
Best,

@ril chataigne is something different, however, something it does well is nintendo joycon (successor to the wii-mote) to OSC messages. You don’t have to use more of the app than that. It’s a 5 min setup. There are some homebrew apps that do the conversion to osc messages but they aren’t well optimised or presented like chataigne is. Don’t dismiss it!
