5 Things You Can Do With Your Wii-mote


Did you know that the Wii-mote can be used to a lot more than controlling the Nintendo Wii?

Sir CRX recently modified his Wii-mote and Xbox360 controller to accept Bluetooth commands. The functions are very limited to four working buttons. So no wiggeling yet, but it is in the works. Sir CRX is considering making a tutorial and some updates. You can see it all in action in the videos below.

I’ve scoured the Internet and found 5 things you also can do with your Wii-mote:

1. You can control your smarthome

2. You can control you electric car (if you happen to have one of those)

3. You can do it in real life

    It seems like Wii games are being rendered useless. You can use the Wii mote on anything.

    Thank you very much Everton.
    Yes I was a bit concerned about the numbers of YouTube videos, so I cut it down from 10 to 5. If this goes well I will write another post with the next 5 videos. So stay tuned everyone ;)

    To be honest while researching for this post I was rather surprised to see how many uses the Wii-mote have or perhaps how many techincally skilled amature engineers there are out there.

    Let me know if I missed anything here please. The list doesn’t have to stop at five things.
