Wiinority Report

Sometimes i am so inspired by things i read, see or hear, that i am not quite sure how to act on them. But i’m glad that have my Blog these days to at least share it with you all.

That we can connect our wiimote to our pc is not new, but what this guy is doing with it is realy refreshing and inspiring.

The principle behind a wiimote is a camera inside the wiimote that registers the 2 light sources inside you sensor bar on top of your tv. Bu what if you swap them: You place the wiimote on top or at the bottom of you tv and you move the light sources around, the applications are very endless. For example when you use a pair of glasses with 2 lights on eather side.

Especially his 3D viewport implementation is inspiring and the other makes the input devices from Minority Report science fact instead of function!

Everything is available as c# source code, i can’t wait to get them to work on my own laptop!
