How to add a program to pixymon

I’ve known how to control Pixy with arduino.
And I am trying to control the Pixy with Windows.

Pixymon has pan/tilt demo, and it seems to execute pantilt.cpp.
How can I add my cpp to PIXYMON’s select table with QT?

hey, I use libusbpixy in Linux system to communicate with pixy, it works find, however I’m not sure windows system, windows is awful.

Hello Tim,
The programs like the pan/tilt demo listed in the action menu actually run onboard Pixy and all PixyMon does is execute a little script that Pixy provides.

Depending on how much you want to get your hands dirty, you could write what’s called a MonModule. There are some users that have done this:

There are also some users who ported libpixyusb to .NET:

Hope this helps!
