p5gconnect — Reads data from a P5 Glove controller.
Plugin opcode in p5g. This opcode is part of the plugin repository and has to be installed separately. The plugin repository can be found here: https://github.com/csound/plugins
Opens and at control-rate polls a P5 Glove controller.
The opcode locates a P5 Glove attached to the computer by USB, and starts a listener thread to poll the device.
Every control cycle the glove is polled for its position, and finger and button states. These values are read by the p5gdata opcode.
Here is an example of the p5g opcodes. It uses the file p5g.csd.
Example 727. Example of the p5g opcodes.
