Hello, it’s great that you’re trying to use Lichtknarre. The problem you describe could have many causes, such as surface reflections, sunlight, performance, incorrect calibration, a poor Bluetooth device, etc. I would recommend discussing the issue in the forum:

https://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,167028.320.html

Here you will find many people who are already using the project and have solved all the problems. This would be a better place to discuss the problem in detail.

i think the p99 has more sensitive camera. Some reflections become eliminated, when you lower IR sensitivity.

I would like to share my setup with you. I am currently using a 4 LED system purchased on AliExpress; I don’t know their exact power. Everything is connected to my 64p TV USB port.

The configuration is cross-shaped, the calibration is correct, and I’m satisfied with the overall result.

However, sometimes the crosshair goes a bit crazy. When i exit the application and relaunch it, everything works perfectly again, but I have the impression that the system is somewhat limited. When the gun is fixed in front of the screen, i’ve noticed that the target shakes. I adjusted the X and Y axes to be properly centered, then corrected the offset using the available options (left/right, up/down). I’m trying to find the ideal settings.

Unfortunately, the distance between my TV and the couch isn’t very large, so i used a wide-angle lens and then performed a new calibration. The result is the same with or without the lens, although it is slightly improved with the lens.

I’m using the Bluetooth integrated into my Aorus Elite AX Z790 motherboard, and i have no connection issues the Wiimote is recognized immediately. I also noticed that with the P99 the result is passable, and that the application used to crash when connecting, which is no longer the case, but its lack of precision makes it unplayable.

Is there a difference between the all-in-one P99 and the Wiimote? Should i use the bad LED mod to fix the issue of the target shaking and occasionally going out of control?

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for your attention.

Hi sorry this is out of scope of the project to make it compatible atm.

Hi, thanks for the response. The cost of the LEDs are no problem. Its more like 15€ for this and 15€ for that etc. I already have one sensorbar and buying another one is very cheap. Plus the samco code for this 4IR is on GitHub. So the setup of my dream would be wiimotes plus samco calibration. I thought it could be added as an update so that you can switch between your pattern and the samco one.

Hello,

it seems to me that you are talking about the 4 LED tracker for the Wiiremote. The positions for the IRs with an inverted cross pattern is not changeable.

The 2 LED tracker for the WiiRemote is a little more flexible with the arrangement of the 2 IR-LEDs.

I hope that answers your question. If something is variable/optional, then it is also in the tutorials.

About the costs:

You also use normal 980nm LEDs. I think 980nm is better. You only need high power LEDs for big screens or you have light problems around you. xD I think 980nm is better than i used in this tutorial. If you use normal 980nm LEDs it can quite cheap.

I would like to use a 4 IR setup like the samco gun does (two on top and two on buttom). This Setup should work with two sensorbars. The IR building cost is quite high your shoppinglist (80€).

I can’t put into words how much I truly appreciate this project. I would also like to say that while this page was clearly made in German (and no offense, it’s not that fluent in English), I’m a native English speaker and would love to support you by localizing the English part of your site to make it that little bit more welcoming to newcomers as your page grows. Just tell me how I would do that and I’d gladly help.

Update: Ah you sort the IRs by x and y. Yeah but i have still different approach.
