Access Infrared Sensor using devkitPro?
Access Infrared Sensor using devkitPro?
TLDR: Did anybody successfully communicated with the infrared sensor embedded in some DS cartridges using devkitPro?
Hello all,
bought a copy of Walk with Me which comes with a infrared pedometer.
To transfer the data it has a infrared sensor built in the cartridge similar to how the Pokéwalker.
Problem is the games on Personal Trainer: Walking are not that great. At least not compared to what Nintendo did with Street Pass on the Nintendo 3DS. So now im here wanting to do a homebrew version of "Puzzle Swap".
I found these two posts which go over the insides and what is being sent.

Im still unsure where and how to start with reading that on the DS though. Did anybody even managed to access the infrared sensor?
PS: I am aware that posting it on here has slim chances of getting any help. I just really like lemmy and people on here so I thought ill try my luck on here as well :)
