To use the xAAL device WiiBalance in the xAAL network, some dependancies are needed.
The library CWiid is needed in order to manage the Wii bluetooth communication between the gateway in the Wii balance board. We advice to compile the last version from the GitHub repository (We had some problems with the debian package concerning the balance board).
Follow install instructions on the website: http://abstrakraft.org/cwiid/ and the GitHub: https://github.com/abstrakraft/cwiid (Be carefull bug in Makefile, need to had missing library in the wmdemo Makefile “LDLIBS += -lcwiid -lbluetooth”)
If the CWiid library is well installed, you can next install the Python wrapper: In the python directory of CWiid type: $ python setup install
Install the xAAL API on your gateway.
We will explain how to deploy the xAAL-WiiBalance device on your gateway.
