Robotic Arm controlled by a Wiimote

Nintendo lovers will love to see some new applications of their Wiimote. Aaron Rasmussen and his friend Brian have managed to develop a system to control a KR16 industrial arm using no more than a Laptop and some home developed code. The robotic arm is capable of swinging a load of 16kgs so it would be better to stay a good ten feet away from it…! The designers can make it play tennis or also act as a murderer with a sword in hand.
