I sorry i didn't make any post with this info but it's mainly because i damage the only and my last green laser. Still waiting for few laser pointers ordered from aliexpress. Rather than wait for they i will just use a red one. I will like to do it this week. I know everyone who is waiting for a better light gun experience wireless or wired in any angle or distance from the screen and very cheap. I warranty it is possible. Projector displays are the ideal working scenario

Looking forward to seeing (and trying) what you have come up with. I hope it will be possible to try with other cameras as well as the PS3eye as well.

Howard_Casto:
Well assuming we ever get anything working, the idea would be to setup a cheaper Arduino (like an uno clone) to have 3 or 4 inputs for buttons and 3 or four outputs for recoil and the leds used in positional games like terminator 2. Maybe also some switches to toggle "fake" recoil or quickly switch between 4:3 and 16:9 mode. The whole thing would show up as a mouse and a joystick and the camera software could send the processed data to the Arduino via a serial connection... that way virtual joysticks and mice aren't needed... it'd show up in the hardware. Mamehooker and/or troubleshooter 2 could control the outputs, again via serial connection.

That's the easy part of the equation though.... I can throw that together in a couple of hours. It's getting the camera stuff squared away and reliable, which hopefully ryokan can help us with.

I'm just burnt out fiddling with the drivers. I'll start again fresh some other time.

that's brilliant

Looking good. I diddn't realize you were using a mouse for the actual click and just using the laser for position. Most stuff I've seen uses a laser that is only turned on when you want a click. I can see + and - both ways. I assume that you have the mouse sensor taped over so you don't get unwanted movements?
