I'm sorry, the UDP wiimote code was dropped as it was in a terrible state. Feel free to either help us to clean up this code, or to write a wiimote emulator for android. Both sounds like funny projects, but nobody has done it.

If I remember correctly some Samsung models have IR blasters. Would this work properly with a real Wii's IR sensor bar? Also, what is the UDP code written in, C++?

There is no need for IR. The "sensor bar" are just two IR lights, and there is a camera in the Wiimote which just look for them. All data is transfered by bluetooth.

The UDPmote part within dolphin is C++, our ugly HLE->usb->bluetooth->wiimote emulation code is also in C++. No idea about the old UDP client, but this is by far the smallest part.

I've never ripped apart a Wiimote, but can the IR camera be hacked to be used for other things? What's the resolution of the camera?

To be honest, no idea. But I remember the wiimote settings window on the real wii itself. It shows the image of this camera Wink

I think it's IR only, no additional spectrum colors.

You can't get RAW data from the sensor either...

I found app that can be mapped for dolphin emulator, but its too hard for me to do it by myself.
Here is link http://www.monect.com
It needs to have downloaded app on your phone and computer. Monect has everything for dolphin as far i know: g-sensor, buttons, d-pad...
I hope this helped
