Wii-controlled Canoe
Something to get us all in that Friday feeling, Tim Hirzel has created a Wii nun-chuck controlled boat for those extra lazy days on the river. What he has done is combine the Wii nun-chuck with an Arduino, an Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.
Providing your know the Arduino programming language you can program your Arduino to recognise almost any stimuli and get it to respond in whichever way you choose. In Tim Hirzel’s case this means prog10raming the Arduino to pick the Wii Nun-chuck movements to control the boat.
