Seem to be the same idea of my PSoC5 project: www.cypress.com/?id=3312&conID=19 But the advantage to control and monitoring through mobile phone or PC is much better than to control by expensive joystick which you must have. And also the utilization of Bluetooth over USB on mbed is not reliable and slow. The cost for mbed + USB stick is > £40 pounds, while dedicated Bluetooth modules plus cheap microcontroller is less than £20. But for experimentation this demo is ok but again not practical for production.

Hi, my interest in the use of the PS3 control, and wanted to see if you have a public library or code which studied for use in another project, or information of which I can make a library for its use, not so much code, but if you could give me information.

Thank you.

How have you interfaced to the Kinect, I am seriously thinking of getting one if this is possible :)

Looks like the laptop is doing the interfacing to Kinect, the mbed just receives Bluetooth serial commands from the laptop.

I guess interfacing directly to the Kinect is well out of the reach of a microcontroller - as I understand the Kinect sensor does no on-board image processing.

Yes, the image processing is done by kinect SDK on the PC.

pc send command to mbed on Bluetooth serial.

The process flow is the same as ps3 controller.

where can i get the windows Kinect SDK from ?

Anyone else got it working ?

Microsoft Official kinect SDK can be downloaded here
