Wii Nunchuck Controlled Robot uses Arduino Microcontroller

Categories: Video, Wiimote Hack.

A quick hack and allows a Nintendo Nunchuck to control this RC Robot.

Video after the jump.

“I connected a Wii Nunchuck controller to an Arduino, which takes the data from the controller’s I2C data bus, decodes it, and send the data to the robot with a radio transmitter. Charlie uses a radio receiver to get the data, and it will control the drive servo system and the pan tilt servo system using the data. The Nunchuck has a 3 axis accelerometer, a joystick, and 2 buttons, it is absolutely awesome to use with a RC robot like this.”
