Whoops. I was mostly testing if Brandon had fixed the starting new threads for photos thing.

But, uh, I guess does anyone have any questions? I'd be glad to answer them.

Strange, I would have expected to also see people having fun with their PS3 sixaxis controllers by this time, or have people not figured out how to have fun with them yet?

How can i get in on this Wiimote action? it would be great for the chairmans presentation. I want to just swing my arm wildly to the right to go to the next slide.

How do you interface with the wiimote? I know its blue tooth, but I want to try that.:D

Re: pic: Zomg Wiimote Action
 

So, are you guys using the built in motion sensors for the drawing or the IR? Over the break I'm going to build a remote IR bar for my Wiimote and try it with my Mac (so far only the motion sensing works for moving the pointer around).

How did you do this, technically? I'm pretty sure Nintendo hasn't publicly released any specs or anything.

This is amazing. I saw a couple of articles on, and am in the process of purchasing one for myself :)

I plan on putting it in a punching bag and using the accelerometer to tell me how hard the bag is hit. If the 3g accelerometer in it doesn't prove to have a large enough range, I will just add weight to the bag untill it is harder to accelerate.

Here are the instructions to build your own sensor bar:

1. Wire up some IR LEDs to a power source with a resistor so they are of appropriate brightness/current draw/voltage.
2. ???
3. Profit!

Hooking up a Wiimote to your computer is a little bit harder. I recommend reading this blog, as it is the current definitive source.

Nobody has been able to get a ps3 since there is so few of them

Re: pic: Zomg Wiimote Action
 

PS3 sucks, enough said.

Re: pic: Zomg Wiimote Action
 

Also if you are interested in doing this check out wiili.org. They have alot of good info. I been wanting to try this, but I havent had the $50 to spend on a wiimote.
