AMS2HID: Take Control of Your Powerbook’s Motion Sensor
When I saw this over at Slashdot earlier today, I only scanned the story thinking it to be
the same old motion sensor madness Scott had reported on previously. Barb over at Engadget, however, actually read the post and realized there was something new.
Fortunately for you and me, I do bother to read Barb's posts.
You can now grab a copy of AMS2HID if you're one of the lucky people with a new G4 Powerbook. This prototype application translates raw data from the motion sensor into input data from a keyboard or a mouse, so that "you can use a AMS-equipped PowerBook as an orientation-driven mouse or keyboard. Perhaps the most interesting and entertaining demonstration of AMS2HID's capabilities is its use for playing a variety of existing games." There are two videos of AMS2HID in action that are absolute must-sees.
