Off the related video's, I came across a link to a 3d tracker using two Wiimotes:

Another (even more related) video:
This should theoretically make that missile command game a reality on a projected screen. Nintendo needs to hire the hell out of this dude.

You know what the most ironic thing is about this:
This guy just used a $50 controller to blow millions of dollars of M$ research money right out of the water. :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

This is nothing new though. There are plenty people who already coupled a projector and an IR camera to copy MS Surface or multi-touch projections. The Wiimote does make this easier to some extent though.
BTW the MS surface and the screen shown in the Missile Command clip works without having IR leds taped to fingers. That's a lot more user friendly.

It's also $5000-$10000. I'll stick with the $40 wiimote solution and my old beat up projector, thanks.

Or use a much cheaper webcam instead of the Wiimote.
