Wii Are Not As Smart As You
8 01 2008It seems like once a month or so I come across a video of some guy in his living room doing some proof of concept with a Wii remote that advances interface technology into the realm of science fiction. Multipoint finger tracking like Minority Report, a multitouch digital whiteboard system made with Radioshack components… Oh wait… it’s the same guy every time.
The video below starts with some explanation of what is about to happen, which is worth listening to so you understand the reason your jaw hits the desk at around the 2:45 mark.
Head tracking desktop VR is the new black.
As you are now well aware, the guys name is Johnny Chung Lee. He’s a graduate PhD at Carnegie Mellon. In addition to writing sweet code, he also makes and sells a $14 Steadycam.
The world needs many more of this guy.
