Wiimote Controlled Coil Gun

Categories: Insane, Video, Wiimote Hack.

If you need a way to protect your cubicle at work this Wiimote Controlled Coil Gun should fit the bill.

Video after the jump.

“In this setup I use a python script and MoteDaemeon to bring the events into my laptop’s domain. Of course I could script up a number of local events but what I wanted to do was act on that data and sending commands to an ioBridge module.

So I build a website which monitors the position from one axis of the wiimote and extrapolates that position to a servo output on a remote ioBridge module (which happens to be in my office, but doesn’t have to be). I’m also tracking some of the button inputs and can expand easilly to include other axes as well!”
