Interesting concept but I don't own a Wii to test it out...................

That's based on Johnny Lee's work -- see http://johnnylee.net/projects/wii/

He's also the one who did the cool "automatic projector calibrator" -- see http://johnnylee.net/projects/thesis/

One of the staff at a school I support has just had a demonstration of this and he says its great. We are going to buy one and try it out as it is way cheaper than any interactive board I know of if you can live with the limitations.

what's up with the cat? I'm waiting for Dr. Evil to come in and b-slap him for not pronouncing "video game" properly and for stealing his cat.

So far, I've gotten most of the videos from this year uploaded to the &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/ACMUISTConference"&gt;conference YouTube account&lt;/a&gt;. If you've closely followed the tech media coverage, you might recognize projects like the &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zo0kJ_wi80"&gt;pressure sensitive keyboard&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hj-L16xhZY4"&gt;Mouse 2.0&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, one of my favorite projects this year was a muscle sensing system that (among other things) allows you to play Guitar Hero without a guitar. It directly senses the electrical signals in your arms and maps those to the appropriate button presses. This was done by &lt;a href="http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/ssaponas/"&gt;Scott Saponas&lt;/a&gt;, a Phd student at the University of Washington exploring a variety of biometric sensing techniques for input.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="560" height="340"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6_7BzUED39A&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6_7BzUED39A&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also really like this project which combines a large touch table with other physical input devices such as multiple mice and keyboards all working together nicely. This prototype was done by &lt;a href="http://bjoern.org/"&gt;Bjoern Hartman&lt;/a&gt; who has recently joined UC Berkeley's faculty. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/v_AvkV286mI&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/v_AvkV286mI&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like systems that combine many modes of input so that you can dynamically choose the right device for the job and can gracefully scale to multiple people simultaneously. We are pretty far past having a 1:1 ratio between between people and computers. Yet, most systems today are still designed with 1 device and 1 user in mind.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4556324987649637814-5863490789196423747?l=procrastineering.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://procrastineering.blogspot.com/feeds/5863490789196423747/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4556324987649637814&amp;postID=5863490789196423747' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4556324987649637814/posts/default/5863490789196423747'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4556324987649637814/posts/default/5863490789196423747'/><link rel='alternate' t
