It's not an official Nintendo commercial. For the CG I used 3dmax 8. Modeling, animation, lighting and render tests took me 13 days, but only in my free moments. The final render took me 12 hours in an Intel Pentium M (centrino) laptop (1,5Ghz and 1Gb of RAM) and a 720x405 resolution. I used Scanline renderer.

Using the infrared camera in the Wii remote and a head mounted sensor bar (two IR LEDs), you can accurately track the location of your head and render view dependent images on the screen. This effectively transforms your display into a portal to a virtual environment. The display properly reacts to head and body movement as if it were a real window creating a realistic illusion of depth and space. By Johnny Chung Lee, Carnegie Mellon University.

Using infrared tracking and projection, we can simulate displays on flexible and foldable surfaces. This allows us to fit a large interactive display into our pockets. The tracking is accomplished using the Wii Remote and IR LEDs Johnny Lee - Carnegie Mellon University

Yep, we finally figured out how the darn IR camera works. It's just a quick hack, but I've written a program to take the data from the Wiimote, filter it a bit, and emulate a mouse. It's actually quite a decent input device, although I recommend using big icons. I've demonstrated a few simple activities with it. Buttons on the Wiimote map to mouse buttons and scroll wheel. Of course, the sensor bar has to be on for this to work (make your own, as documented in many places, or just power yours off your Wii as I use here) I'm working on a full-blown Linux driver with support for every feature known, multiple clients, and a lot more (with no ugly hacks). See you soon with the next video! Update: Check http://wiibrew.org/index.php?title=Wiimote out for the actual technical information on how all this works!

Here's a quick version of how this works. This is by no means a complete guide. You are expected to be able to read documentation and experiment for yourself. This guide is for Windows, but see the bottom if you have a mac. You do not need a Wii console to do this. I do not actually own a Wii console, I just went out and bought the controller as soon as I heard it is bluetooth enabled. You will however need a bluetooth adapter. (A lot of laptops have one already) First get BlueSoleil (www.bluesoleil.com) to pair your computer with the wiimote over bluetooth. Get GlovePIE (http://carl.kenner.googlepages.com/glovepie). It recognizes the wiimote and you can turn the sensor data into midi output. There are some sample scripts on there, but you'll really want to write your own script. The program has excellent documentation, and with the sample scripts provided it is relatively easy to write your own script for whatever you are doing. You will need to install the Maple Virtual MIDI ports (http://www.hardnote.com/maple.htm). This allows you to send MIDI data between programs on your computer. One program uses port 1 as an output, and another listens on that port. At this point, you can use the Wiimote to send midi data to any program you want. I used Reaktor. In my video, I have two tilt axes controlling the frequency cutoff on two low-pass filters. The arrow keys control the pitch of the melody, and the rest of the buttons choose from preset chords. The A and B buttons turn on and off the two voices. You might also notice that the LEDs on the Wiimote change. They change depending on the chord that is selected. You are able to use GlovePIE to also send MIDI data back to the Wiimote. Quick note to mac users: You can do this using Max/MSP. There is an object for Max written to connect to the Wiimote. See the instructions here: http://www.iamas.ac.jp/~aka/max/#aka_wiiremote

The Dreamcast version of Rez (emulated on a PC) played with a Wii Remote using a GlovePIE script I wrote. I made it to use either Wiimote motion or Nunchuk joystick control. I periodically unplug and replug the Nunchuk throughout the video to demonstrate. Because this is the Dreamcast version of the game run through emulation on the PC, I won't be sharing the script or info on how to play it. Sorry!

This time I worked on integrating the Wiidi Wiimote MIDI interface with Ableton Live. I mapped all the Wiimote and Nunchuck buttons, including the joypad, which can be used as a fully functional X-Y controller. I'm currently working on streamlining the application interface so you can customize the button mappings on the fly. In this video I demonstrate the ability to control knobs by tilting the remote or nunchuck. Drums can also be triggered by snapping the wiimote or nunchuck like a drum stick-- and it can determine sensitivity! The best part is, Wiidi will be available for download soon! Follow along at wiidi.com. thanks!
