Wii Remote Hack Part II : Making things communicate

This video was taken at the Trinidad and Tobago Computer Society (TTCS ; ttcsweb.org tech meeting on Sunday April 20th, 2008. The meeting was our attempt to try Johnny Chung Lee’s project “Low-Cost Multi-point Interactive Whiteboards Using the [Nintendo Wii] Wiimote”. Visit Johnny Lee’s website at www.johnnylee.net for more details. Part I is a presentation by Mike Tikasingh showing how the infra-red pens were made. www.youtube.com Part II (this video) is a presentation by Paul Worswick showing how the Nintendo Wii Remote was connected to a Windows PC wirelessly using Bluetooth. He then showed how to use the infra-red pen to turn a computer screen projected on a wall to create a interactive whiteboard. Part III shows the practical use of the infra-red pen and the Wiimote to create a interactive whiteboard from the computer screen projected on a wall and then on a computer screen projected on a table. www.youtube.com
