About

Missing a spirit level at home, I decided to use the Wiimote as a replacement.

Please put any comments or suggestions on the Talk Page, I'd appreciate the feedback.

Installation

Download & extract the archive, and place it in your apps folder on your SD card so the Homebrew Channel can find it.

Usage

Put the wiimote on a surface you want to use as a reference and press A.

This will start a calibration, and afterwards you can put it on a target surface to see its difference in inclination.

Screenshots

Changelog

v0.4:

  • Chg: Median instead of arithmetic mean is now used to get calibration values, this should increase accuracy.
  • Chg: Message class now handles text drawing
  • Add: Internal info on pressing B in the slider box screen
  • Add: Arc graph showing current tilt

v0.3:

  • Fix: Leftover cursor pixel from previous tests removed

  • Chg: Verbosity of calibration screen decreased
  • Add: Detection if Wiimote #1 is up and running
