Craft & Design Fun & Games Science

On Johnny Lee’s website, he discusses (and shows video off) his latest computer-human interaction research at Carnegie-Mellon using the Wiimote. In the above video, he gives a presentation on different types of flexible, foldable displays using the motion tracking of the Wiimote and IR LEDs (and projection) to simulate the displays. On his page is also a Cambridge video on how to do 3D motion capture for around US$100 using two Wiimotes and stereo triangulation.
