some of you may have seen the youtube videos, i thought they were pretty cool, but having just watched the 3rd in the series, i'm totally amazed:

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/%7Ejohnny/projects/wii/

i'm on about the 3rd one: "Head Tracking for Desktop VR Displays using the Wii Remote"

im now just thinking non stop about how awesome it'd be for next-gen FPS's, or applications such as google earth. he say's there a Wii library he used to do it, this means it's possible to write a wrapper for dbp right? if that was the case, i'd pay good money for such a plugin, and then go out and buy a wii, so if anyones looking for a business idea, there it is.

I would pay through the nose for a full fledged wii-mote wrapper. For sure. I wish I could code my own.

And if someone revived one of those old threads you or someone else would probably complain just the same soo... Pick the lesser of 2 evils.

Those 3 videos is nothing new so I wonder why there's even anyone posting about it again. How about making a post in DLL Talk instead?

@Agent Dink, maybe if either of those two threads were actually old. Personally I wouldn't complain if someone rezzed an old thread to add to it, beats me having to type out my response again .
