Abstraction Controller Server

This project aims to provide a generic abstraction of any existing controller. The client-side code should keep a minimum size, as it only sees a generic joystick : the server, on which all the drivers are installed, retrieves and translates all the data from the controller into buttons and axes.

Currently, the only implemented controller is the Leap Motion. We are working right now on at least three other controllers.

Prerequisites

• Download and install the LeapMotion Setup

Installation

• Clone the project
• cd Abstraction-ControllerServer
• make

Usage

• Server side
  • Connect your Leap Motion
    • Linux : run sudo leapd
    • Mac OS : just run Leap Motion
  • ./bin/LeapServer <nb_client> <port>
• Client side

  • C/C++

    #include "socklib.h" // disponible dans /include
    
    int main() {
         int socketClient = CreeSocketClient ("127.0.0.1", "2222");
    
         if (socketClient == -1) {
              fprintf(stderr,"erreur de connexion sur la socket");
              exit (1)
         }
    
         //bla bla
    
         return 0;
    }
