Mind you, I don't have a Wii, so I didn't go "squee" as others might when viewing this. However, I do think what this guy's doing with the Wiimote is very, very cool.

First video: Using the Wiimote to turn your TV into a multitouch display

Second video: Using the Wiimote to create low-cost interactive whiteboards

Third video: Using the Wiimote to create VR view head-tracking

If this guy doesn't get offered a very high-paying job before he graduates from his university, I'd be shocked.
