Finally tweaked the head tracking patch so its fairly stable and thoroughly usable now.

I have been exploring methods of using the wiimote control as an interface device. The most famous implementation of this is Johnny Chung Lee – http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/ .
I have managed to get the same method working using vvvv, using velcromes wiimote plugin – http://vvvv.meso.net/tiki-searchindex.php?highlight=wiimote
Here is a short video of the results:
And some images:
Additionally i have begun to explore the possibilities of utilising the wiimote for mobile projection screens, heres a short video of early results:

Successfully enabled arduino to talk to vvvv. Managed to get a potentiometer and light sensor as a controller for a variety of functions. Simple rotation and positioning of a 3d object were explored before creating a simple patch to control effects on a live video feed.
