Optimus Maximus for software developers

For those who want to work directly with the device

Software developers can program Optimus Maximus using the virtual drive, which means no OS specific drivers are required for it, and programming is as simple as creating a .cmd file. To make it easier, we have created Optimus Maximus SDK. The SDK features support for HID—capability added in the 0.76b firmware update—that allows capturing keypress events regardless of what keycode has been assigned to the keys. Optimus Maximus SDK includes:

MaximusLibrary (C++ Library, see OptimusMaximus.h for interface overview)

MaximusLibraryUsageExample (C++ usage example plus simple Snake and Memory games)

MaximusCOM (COM wrapper for MaximusLibrary)

Compiled binaries for all examples and games (Visual C++ runtime required, and COM must be registered with registerCOM.cmd)
