Ball-It releases Motion Control SDK for Java ME

Oulu, Finland, April 12, 2007 – Ball-IT has today released a Motion Control Software Development Kit (SDK) for Java ME. The SDK enables game programmers and the like to easily and effortlessly integrate sophisticated motion control features to their Java ME games and applications.
 
"We believe there is an urgent need for general purpose Motion Control Software Development Kit for mobiles, so that game and application developers can take advantage of contemporaty sensing technologies without having to deal with raw sensor data, or plain orientation data. Our Motion Control SDK is targeted to companies and programmers who want to use the sophisticated event-based motion regognition features with real-time, filtered and balanced continuous motion data. They don't have to implement complexities like magnetic sensor calibration, motion path prediction or adaptive orientation filtering, that is built-in our SDK", said Johannes Väänänen, Chairman, Ball-It.
 
The SDK works with all Ball-It's products, including ping-pong ball sized Smart Ball, the first true 6D motion control accessory for mobiles. The SDK requires MIDP 2.0, CLDC 1.1 and JSR 82. Most modern Bluetooth-enabled phones support this configurations.
 
Initially the SDK is available for Ball-It's partner companies.
