Head Tracking for Desktop VR Displays using the WiiRemote

Back


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 Lee, Carnegie Mellon University.

This guy is a freaking legend, he actually can help the game developers create 3D virtual games that require you to move around.
