This is a really slick trick to add a new
dimension to gaming - and other applications!
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. By Johnny Chung
