which is friggin sweet, the games that out kids play are going to blow some minds!

second, hes speaking of minority report because in the movie Tom just uses his hand to control a huge computer screen that displays information on future Crimes.
he just moves his hands to grab new folders. pictures, videos. all he is doing is waving his hands around, and that motion performs so many tasks.

I got my 20$ dongle from Walmart to work. Then I found a dongle that you get with My Mii manager, witch I think, works better then the one I bought from the Walmart store. My Mii Manager, I bought from Walmart too. Only available online store.

If you ever watched the .hack series it was about an MMORPG that the main interface was a controller and a VR goggles. Just think if this was paired with some wearable video glasses people use for ipods with the IR LEDs on the side.

All you need to buy is the Wiimote and the glasses with IR LEDs.
And of course, a computer with bluetooth.


For all those not aware, he is running this software on his PC, not on the Wii.
He simply is using the television as an external monitor.]]>Dec 21st 2007 11:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/21/diy-head-tracker-takes-wiimote-hacking-to-dizzying-new-heights/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/21/diy-head-tracker-takes-wiimote-hacking-to-dizzying-new-heights/
