x-IMU API#

[Vladimir Shulakov]

Hi,

I need to attach x-IMU dll for PB app. (I need to test x-IMU trackir device). It have x-IMU API:
http://www.x-io.co.uk/node/9 in C#, XML API

It use xIMU_API.DLL and API like this:

Earlier, I have attached successfully a different "trackir" devices via COM or *.h headers API.
But XML API for PB app is incomprehensible.

Maybe, anybody has an experience with it ?

Any ideas?

Regards,
Vladimir

It is not an standard DLL, but a .NET assembly.
