Wii Mode Driver Development Update

Marcan has posted a video showing his progress on WiiMote Development. He has a nifty little program that will allow you to see graphs of the data that comes from the remote as you wave it in the air. By using these measurements and calculations developers will eventually be able to predefine gentures and movements of the wii-mote in their software applications.

Great work Marcan! When will we be able to get our hands on this demo app so we can see the pretty colors on our own screen?

Volsung, Wiilii, and others are busy documenting all of the math involved in the wii-mote over on the Wiili Wiki:

Also Cliff in IRC Efnet #wiidev has made progress on a linux i/o driver for the wii-mote. Nothing to test yet, but when code is released you can be sure it will be posted here.
