So here’s a somewhat interesting gadget. Instead of converting a PS3 into a hand-held device, a crafty modder named techknott built a custom transmitter. The transmitter allows a player to not only control their PS3 remotely, but also to view the output on a small video screen.
Essentially, you’re combining a controller with a wireless video device, and a small LCD screen. Sounds simple right? Well, it’s might be simple, but looking at the fabrication quality in the video, it’s obviously something that required quite a bit of time and effort.
This is a video showing BlueMaemo, an application that allows you to control your PS3 with a Nokia N900. Well, it will allow you to control any number of devices, it’s just that there’s a video of it interacting with a PS3. All hail mighty Bluetooth, king of the wireless protocols.
The video is in Italian, but it should be easy enough to follow. It’s not like too much is going on or anything.
The application is totally free, and was developed by Valério Domingos Valério, a Benfica fan. Incidentally, that makes he and I mortal enemies, being a former Sporting season ticket holder. (And how good is Jorge Jesus? Oh, wait, nobody knows what I’m talking about!
