Turn your monitor into a touch screen interactive display by using a Wii remote as a tracker and an infrared laser (or 2 ) as your stylus. A cool idea if you have to do presentations at work etc.
See the tutorial here. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=5s5EvhHy7eQ

The software is available here.. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/

.
Coming soon, 3D tracking... head tracking.. and all by using a Wii remote.
Something I'd love to be able to do in RBR on the tight Japanese stages.

I would love it if someone made a cricket game for the Wii, using the controller as a bat! :p Dunno how you could do it for bowling though - how long is the controller cable? :erm:

Wow. This looks very cool. Thanks. :up:

Still wondering... how does it work? I'm a bit challenged electronically... :(

You can play baseball on Wii so I'm sure they could easily make a cricket game. The cable is only attatched to your arm so you don't throw it at your tv. :)

We're taking a Wii away with us when we go away for Christmas. I'm going to end up with a Wii injury, I just know it. Atleast I now I can say my injury came from educational purposes not me playing the racing cow came or something equally as daft.
