Re: Wii Contoller

The wii nunchuck would be a really cool control for an arm/grabber of some sort. With a 3-axis accelerometer, the applications are pretty sweet. You move it up, the arm goes up. You move it forward, the arm extends forward. Press "c" or "z" and the claw opens or closes. That would be sweet, though it would be hard to control without practice.:rolleyes:

Re: Wii Contoller

problem is that the wiimote and the OI cannot interface without some kind of converter chip... and i think besides the chicklet that a chip like that is illegal.

The Chicklet gets an exception to the "no external power" rule. If a different converter is powered exclusively through the OI's joystick port, it shouldn't violate that rule either.

Re: Wii Contoller

A fun one would be to use a laser gun from a laser tag game (An IR one anyways... have some of these)... You'd probably need to hack it to send more than one signal though.

Course, it's electronics, so it's way out of my league anyways ;)
