Abstract :
This article describes how to turn a Wiimote into a wireless mouse to operate a computer. It can be widely used in classrooms and conference rooms for presentation and interactive discussion. Most of all, it allows multiple users to use multiple Wiimotes to operate the same computer. Currently we are exploring the approaches to use Wiimotes to construct a motion tracking system that can be used in a virtual reality environment.
