I’d originally posted this as a South Hall discovery but I think this was actually in the Central Hall after looking at the picture description I wrote up. Not that it really makes much of a difference but I also think that this deserves it’s own post…
…it’s just that cool.
WiiMote for Windows
It’s not exactly the same but check this out – it’s something akin to a WiiMote for Windows that enable you to control your Windows desktop when connected to a large screen TV or a projector image.
It’s called WavIt and it’s a control device that allows you to point at the screen and control the cursor/mouse pointer. It is quite stable and works on all 3 axis, meaning when you can point up, down, left and right…
… you can also move the device farther or closer away from the screen to "zoom" in or out of the picture in a program like Internet Explorer…
… of you can "twist" the device left and right on the Z-axis to "turn down or up" the volume control of the speakers.
All in all, it’s a very impressive device and at $99, it’s a real steal. Admittedly I was so impressed with it that I bought one right on the spot.
