In case you’ve missed it, here’s a cool hack involving a WiiMote playing an iPhone game-app over bluetooth! – via hackedgadgets
Here’s another great linux/wii hack that alows you to use a Wiimote with linux games. The author uses a linux HTPC which projects HD onto his wall using a projector, thus using Wiimote as control device not only a necessity, it also allowed protectiong against damages to expensive HDTVs.
When I had to decide on a remote control for it, it didn’t take me long to see a wii-mote would be ideal. It is wireless, has enough buttons to make movie control
Although this is an awesome Wii hack using GlovePie and the Wiimote, you could probably do this a lot easier using a simple 3-axis accelerometer and a microcontroller.
I got this idea after seeing some physics class use the wiimote in some kinda pendulum experiment.
Why not use the wiimote’s built in 3-axis accelerometers to measue g-forces, acceleration and even calculate

Here’s a cool Wii HACK someone made that unlocks a door! It uses FreeBSD, some type of bluetooth device, and Wiimote to make it a complete system. I bet you can use less parts. Will someone hack one again soon?

Here’s a neat little Wii HACK that uses the Wiimote as a Loop Machine for re-mixing some music. Kinda love this one since it’s got some good music too.
This weekend I finished the Wii Loop Machine software that I started a few weeks ago. It’s a system for using the wireless Wii remote to sync, control, and manipulate loops in real time.

Wow, check out this cool solar powered Wii!
Tom’s Hardware Guide recently built a mobile Wii station, complete with an HD monitor, that’s powered in part by a solar energy (check out the Tom’s Workshop video of the project). It’s a simple invention on many levels. For one, it didn’t cost much at all to find a battery, power converter and appropriately-sized solar power panel. And the station itself is just wood with a couple of wheels and a co

Check out this cool wii hack that allows you to use wii controller as a Midi controller!
This is very similar to the Wii guitar but you could probably do more with midi.
Thanks crustea for the tip!
In addition to the traditional buttons, force feedback and the integrated mini-speaker, the true innovation is the presence of a gravity and acceleration sen
