Hi,
I have a motion capture system, which I can read coordinates of markers from using LabVIEW 2009. I'd like to use that to control the Windows cursor (for a bit of fun). I've had a quick play with ActiveX and .NET, but I am no expert. How should best proceed?
Would LabVIEW need to provide coordinates to every application opened? For example Word, Excel etc., or would writing coordinates to the windows cursor be suficient?
In the absence of a motion capture system, a test program that records and plays back the movements of a mouse would be great! .. anyone? 🙂

On a related note, there's an Android app called "Ethereal dialpad", if anyone see's a Windows based version I'd be quite keen to use it to play with test my new finger-controlled cursor vi!
