Add Motion Control and More to Your Applications

The open-source libfreespace library provides an easy-to-use interface to Hillcrest Labs Freespace®-based devices such as in-air remote controls. libfreespace enables access to the calibrated acceleration, rotational velocity, and sensor orientation measurements that are not reported by default. Windows XP, Vista, 7, Mac OS X, and Linux are supported. The library is covered by the LGPL 2.1 license.
