Conditionally writing application output to PowerShell pipeline

I have a C# console application that outputs text. If the application is run from a PowerShell window I would like to output objects instead of text, so the objects may be consumed by cmdlets downstream in the pipeline.

1. How would my app detect that it is running under PowerShell?
2. How do I output objects to the pipeline?
