Homemade Wii Sensor Bar/IR emitter
I like using the Wii Remote as a mouse and controller for games on my PC using GlovePie, but my Wii is not normally near my computer, so using it’s censor bar required moving the entire system. I decided to try to build a sensor bar that I could just use at my PC – It works okay, but not quite as good as I would like. The mouse is a little jumpy. Despite this, it seems to work just fine when I put it on top of my TV and play the wii. Pretty much normal. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Edit: I forgot to mention, i’m not really that technical, so I conferred with my brother on resisters and such. He told me to use a 3 ohm resister, but they didn’t have any, so he told me I could use two tens, and lower their resistance to 5. This project may not need resisters, but I figured the LEDs will last longer if they are not at their max.
