Yet Even More .NET-based Wiimote Applications

In the past couple of weeks, several very interesting projects using my Managed Library for Nintendo's Wiimote have appeared.

First off, Johnny Chung Lee has created some amazing and unique user interface demos with the library which can be found at his site.  Here are a few videos showing off what he's done:

 

Wiimote Whiteboard

 

Head Tracking Display

 

Cynergy Labs has used the library in conjunction with WPF and some of Johnny's ideas to create a Minority Report-style interface with some Microsoft Surface-style effects:

 

Incredible stuff.  I'd also like to toot my own horn and state that, at the time of this writing, my Wiimote library is the #1 most downloaded project at CodePlex.  I wish I could take credit for that, but I'm certain these talented folks and their amazing work with the library are the reason for that.

As always, if anyone out there is using the library, please contact me so I can add you to the master list.
