  1. The $100 Interactive Board Andy Hall Network Admin, Kearney R-I October 7, 2008

  2. Credit Up Front • None of these ideas are my own, I just borrow them from others who are nice enough to share • Largest credit goes to Johnny Chung Lee (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/) • WiinRemote from Japan, but has English translation (http://onakasuita.org/wii/index-e.html) • Stories about using this appear occasionally (but not lately) on Slashdot (http://slashdot.org)

  3. What is it? • Wiimote • Sensor bar • Bluetooth dongle (if needed) • Software (free)

  4. How does it work? • WiiMote connects directly to the PC via bluetooth • WiinRemote software converts signal to something the comptuer can understand • Sensor bar sits directly above or below the projection screen • WiiMote has a IR light sensor, the sensor bar sends out the IR light. The movement that is detected by the WiiMote is what is transmitted to the PC

  5. And since I’m no technical expert, here’s a short video • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgKCrGvShZs

  6. The Pen Approach • I have opted against this after testing • I didn’t want to be tied to a board if I was teaching • The homemade feel of the pens just didn’t seem right • I had trouble getting pens that did what I wanted

  7. Wireless mouse • I prefer this as it uses all “real-looking” parts – nothing I have to cobble together from empty pen casings and Radio Shack supplies. • WiinRemote (http://onakasuita.org/wii/index-e.html) gives many options for programming and using. • I can turn it on and off with a button.

  8. The next step • Johnny Chung Lee’s 3-D movement • Software is quirky now, but will be much slicker in the very near future • Similar types of systems are being built into all kinds of hardware, including cell phones and other game systems.
