LEFTEROS / PERSONAL NOTES

iPhone as a motion-sensitive game controller

11 April 2011 / Lefteris Iliadis / SomniusX

Historical text from HellasProject (2009–2014). It is not current advice or a present-day service.

TiltPad turns your iPhone into a motion-sensitive game controller. It works with all video games and uses the iPhone’s motion sensors to steer movement in the game!

HOW IT WORKS:

  1. Download TiltPad (1.59€) for iPhone from the iPhone App Store.
  2. Connect the iPhone and your computer to the same Wi-Fi network. If no Wi-Fi is available, create an ad-hoc network from the computer.
  3. Launch TiltPad on the iPhone and on the computer.
  4. Pick your computer from the iPhone. Use the iPhone as a mouse when upright and as a tilt-sensitive device when horizontal.
  5. Set game options from the TiltPad Server control panel.

It needs Mac OS X 10.6.6 or newer.

Download it from the Mac App Store
