DS4 touchpad emulation via IR sensor

[eadmaster]

Do you think it may be possible to emulate the DS4 touchpad via the wiimote IR sensor?
I think this could help a lot with touchscreen-based games on the PSTV (some of them are unplayble with the DS3).

That would require custom hardware if doing it with the Vita (couple IR LEDs). Even then at that close of a range the IR sensor becomes practically useless on the Wiimote.

It would however be interesting if that could work on the PSTV at all.

there is a USB IR device called the Dolphin bar that lets you play Wii games on the PC and use Wii controllers with your PC. this would be cool for RetroArch and other emus on the PSTV. at the moment I cant get my WiiMotes working with my PSTV, it there limitations like no motion plus or BioGen wiimotes?

i made a typo config.txt, it's working now :), but RetroArch wont recognize the wiimote as a second controllers.
