Can someone PM me the exination of projector + wii remote + sanded plexy glass = touch thingy? I really wanted to make tiny version of this witha mini projector 8-9 inches how do I even get started?
@gammypage Bullcrap. If you don't have to worry about your hand touching it you can WRITE. On a normal touchscreen you can't cause the edge of your hand touches too. This is great because he can take just the stylus and touch it.
all you did was sand a piece of plexiglass? I want to do this exact same thing please help anyone? I have everything but the surface HELP PLEASE after hours of researching i have drawn no good info
You said you would upload the final version in a week or two...that was two years ago, lol. So where's the final project? Very interested to see what it's like.
How do you get the 4 point calibration? THX when you reply could you please tell me what your replying to because I get it in my inbox and I don't know what their replying to. OK THX!
this isn't "first". some asian guy developed the first program to utilize the wii mote as an IR detector for a computer, and is also the first to develop anything that fully utilized it to any good potential. any person can make what you did there (actually i've already had something like this for two years now). tho i do have to say, your calibration precision and the accuracy of IR light capture is REALLY good. its actually the most accurate i've ever scene. what software you using?
@MrBendnorman You can flip the projected Picture. Linux can do this by default, Windows and OS X might require an tool to do that. Also many better projectors have an option for that.
I have been recently using Windows7 for more than a week now and it is awesome. If anyone you know wants it, you may get a hold of it through Windows7FreeDLXcom (replace X with . ) 100 % free.
There are plenty of software available for PC to invert the screen viewing both horizontally and vertically, not sure about mac but im guessing there are.
Now stfu insulting people tryin to help, you arrogant prick, especially since your question was fuckin retarded.
why are you wondering if he can get a I,R lazer and use that from far away when you can actually have that distance, its the same distance as most people put there sensor bar from their sofa, as long as hes using a wiimote camera that faces forward, as aposed to the johnny lee white board technique, considering you actually want far away no touch and you can put the mote on top of the glass display (muchos cool btw), or build it in!
2) The reason I ask is because if you project from the rear, your image will be inverted, unless he has some sort of mirror that he's bouncing the image off of, which he doesn't mention in the description.
3) Don't you ever condescend and tell me to "read the discription", imbecile. How dare you?
Sorry for my misunderstanding...you are right, the image will be inverted...there must be mirrors or a software of the beamer or the pc that invert the image that it is right again on the screen
So in this case the description is useless...sorry!
And what's about the second video, that should describe a better version of the screen?
greattt idea.... i also wanna try to build that touchscreen table screen from instructables...kinda like the one microsoft is developing,. ut on a smaller scale...then i will build this huge screen..problem is i dont have a Wii mote...
@angusm33 Probably that is supposed to reference windows surface, which was their attempt to charge something like two grand for pretty much the same features
What if you were to combine this idea with the finger tracking idea. Instaed of one remote, use 2 one for tracking the fingers from a further distance and the other remote for what you just showed us.
I have been experimenting with that idea and it was a dead end. turns out lasers dont work very well for this and IR lasers are pretty pricey. i have however come up with a better solution using IR leds which i will be posting soon. just trying to make it pretty now. feel free to subscribe to our channel and you will be one of the first to see the update =)

Hi Presenter,
can you help me out? I have a mac, installed the wiiremote software of uwe schmidt; installed the preferences.
I can calibrate the four points with my ir ledpen.
And after that I cannot use the irledpen as a mouse, and I get no pen to draw with.
I tried it with a bemer + wiiremote and on my laptopscreen.
What did I forget? thanks,..

you should make a glove with contacts on the index finger, and thumb, so that when they touch together they light up an IR LED on your finger.
it would give the feel of dragging windows around, without some sort of pen.
