MotionDriver 1.0 + SDK Released

If you’re sporting one of these bad boys — the NEO PSP Motion Kit Adapter to the left, then you best be downloading Raphaels’ MotionDriver v1.0 (for users) and the SDK (for developers).

…Say what?

For developers: easily interface with the NEO Motion Kit without any SIO coding on your part. The input data is provided as a raw gravital acceleration vector, as well as a rotation vector representing the tilt of the PSP. You can poll the motion data as an additional input method; if no motion kit is attached, the driver will return zero values for all vectors. Furthermore, Raphael’s driver bypasses the no sound problem due to the motion kit occupying the headphone jack. Thus, it’s possible to switch between the motion kit and headphones at any given time without a problem.

…Huh?!

For users: install as a regular plug-in under whatever custom firmware you’re running… This enables support for the adapter, which interprets motion gestures as configurable button presses. For example — you may navigate through the XMB by simply tilting your PSP. Quite cool, if I don’t say…
