How To: Create Desktop Virtual Reality Displays with a Wiimote

Create Desktop Virtual Reality Displays with a Wiimote

If there is any doubt that nerds deserve to rule the world, please watch this brilliant home brewed invention.

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.

Just updated your iPhone? You'll find new emoji, enhanced security, podcast transcripts, Apple Cash virtual numbers, and other useful features. There are even new additions hidden within Safari. Find out what's new and changed on your iPhone with the iOS 17.4 update.

Holy monkey balls, this kicks ASS!

I gotta say this is a very very clever use of the nintendo sensor system.
I wonder if the stereoscopic 3d from nvidia is similar in anyway.
