TataconUSB

A small dongle to connect your Wii taiko controller to your computer as a USB device, instead of using Bluetooth.

Due to 20ms input lag, I have abandoned this project. If a workaround is discovered, I'd love to hear it. It appears to be inherent to the controller.

##Building firmware: At console, run make. You will need AVR GCC installed.

##Building hardware: Send the Gerbers for V2 to a PCB fab, or generate them yourself from the v0.2 tag files. Altium Designer was used, open TataconUSB.PrjPcb as the main file.

Ground is unconnected in V2 (whoops!) so you'll need to solder 2 fly wires. Also, tie the HWBOOT pin to ground to enable easier programming.

Tap the RESET pin to ground to drop the board into bootloader mode, then use Atmel's FLIP programmer to load the .hex.
